Dreamweaver Judy Darragh

10 December 2002 - 21 December 2002

Judy Darragh's previous works, Dreamweavers, consisted of fluorescent sheets of commercial day-glo showcard layered with stickers and paint and massed together as one work. The effect was dazzling like a large day-glo science formula or an op-art chemical crystal. Judy Darragh expands on this, the processes used and re-commission elements she had eliminated over the past four years - colour, image and three dimensions. This work for the Blue Oyster will have an intensity of labour and process, the obsessive, hand drawn and stitched; a cottage industry approach. The overall installation will be an overwhelming mass of image, colour, surreal and hallucinogenic, a revisiting of the excesses once present in her work.
