Proud to Present, 2009

Proud to Present, 2009

details about this work


Polly Cruse is based in Norwich, Eastern


My practice is focused on the immaterial aspects of living and currently is exploring the relief felt when distracted from the banality of everyday life.
I construct objects and photographs which capture moments of dreamt freedom,. The work is open to viewers imagination and alludes to times of much needed escape referencing childhood fantasies.
