Artwork Description

From Carnivale to Coronation Street.

A black and white, rather 2D Beryl scrubs her front steps in the grimy backstreets of a Coronation Street-like terrace row. She dreams of “ruling the waves” in sea foam fabulocity at Mardi Gras. The Venetian masked figure beckons Beryl into the 3D world full of sequins, pearls and ruffled tulle. A sad little child sits on the brickwork in the background… wearing the only sort of mask Beryl would have worn – a wartime gas mask.

We never know what fantastic dreams lie behind the faces of other people.
