New works by Susan Blight curated by Sally Frater
 
Everyone Should Come from Some Place is a body of work which employs the use of doubling, multiples, and camouflage as a metaphor for the complexities of cultural identity, the negotiating of boundaries both personal and political, and to interrogate systems of representation.
