In May this year I was the lucky recipient of a micro grant from Arts North West that enabled me to undertake a home-based residency exploring issues of loneliness and isolation generated by the Covid19 lock down. I have found it to be the most exhilarating experience and have had a couple of extremely productive months. I have experimented with new materials and started working on a major theme revolving around Dante's dark and savage wood.
I have made some mini videos of myself trying out the new drawing materials and aim to get these all posted to this blog over the next week or two to give people the time to see them without feeling they are being overwhelmed by the number of them. All of the videos have been posted to Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/123fionadolls
Creative New England also did an interview with me about the project which you can find here: https://www.unelife.com.au/blog/2020/06/30/fiona-mcdonald
Here are some photos of the works in progress and some of the finished pieces.
Thank you Arts North West!
