Callan Park Murder













This artwork is very similar to that of the previous. However this dress tells the story of a young girl who was murdered at the age of six in “Lovers Lane” within the Callan Park Grounds during the 1930’s.
This is a work in progress however my intentions with this work is to create a mixed media piece through the incorporation of ceramics, fabric, wire, wax as well as found objects. This child had her innocence ripped from her at such a young age; her life was over before it had really begun.
This work will explore the shell of her being, what she left behind, the ghost of this young girl. I have included pictures of what I have achieved so far; however I will keep this blog updated regularly on its progress.
My intentions with this work are to create a sense of unease and intrigue within my audience.
Disturbed fascination.
