Like Alice in Wonderland, this installation drops into the rabbit hole of a world from a small girl’s point of view. The child’s wanderings, meanderings and silliness reveal that before knowing fairytales such as Cinderella or Little Red Riding Hood, the world is filled with wonder and is limitlessness. It is a time before the influence of gender expectation, prejudice and judgments. Created at the same time as Kiki Smith’s installation “Telling Tales,” about fairytales from a feminist perspective, MAKING TALES -- the video, photographic wall (9’ x 15’) and sculptural pieces -- exhibited in Gallery One of the 80 Washington Square Gallery in New York City.
