her statement reads in part, "i want to pry at those uncomfortable, awkward edges between animal and human. the figures are feral and uneasy, expressing frustration for the human tendency towards cruelty and lack of understanding. entangled in their own internal and external struggles, the figures are engaged with the subjects of fear, apathy, violence and powerlessness." i think she succeeds. i want to like it, but i feel uncomfortable. beth cavener stitcher
