Elisabeth Higgins-O'Connor's exhibition Dreadful Sorry Clementine takes its name from a children's nursery rhyme - the original being sing-songy and childish, but contrasted with dark, melodramatic lyrics. Elisabeth's work walks the line between familiarity and chaos. Working with commonly available materials such as bed sheets, bedding and other discarded domestic fabrics. Elisabeth's execution of the materials suggests both obsessive anxiety and wild abandon.
