- Abstract
- 9th March - 2nd April 2016 A compellingly beautiful yet tragic series of drawings make up this exhibition of nine works created by artist Sally Miller in the months before her death in mid 2015. Sally's life was prematurely cut short by a progressive neurological disorder called Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) - a degenerative disease that steadily cripples movement and bodily function. These nine large graphite on paper drawings, each accompanied by a brief description dictated by Sally in the last weeks of her life, reflect the harsh and progressive assaults on her body - a beautiful, powerful and compelling last testament to Sally's courage and fierce commitment to her artistic practice and creative imagination.
