Daisy Collingridge Facescape (Miniature 1) Textiles and wood on paper Signed on Verso 10.5 x 15 x 1.7cm (4 x 5¾ x ¾ in.) This lot has been curated by Millie Foster About Daisy is a multi-disciplinary work investigating the human form as the central theme. The work sits in a place of tension between, sculpture, performance and art. The 'flesh suits' are an exploration of fabric, form and flesh. Their tactile fabric bodies and inviting colour exaggerate the warmth and softness of flesh- these elements which signify a living thing. They are visceral. There is a desire to touch. Fabric offers skin like qualities that traditional sculpting materials do not have.

Working on smaller scale fabric works emphasise intricacy and delicacy in portraying facial features. This miniature approach invites viewers to closely examine the fine textures and stitches that bring a face to life fostering a sense of intimacy.
