Oona Grimes uses etching & drawing to construct her own enigmatic world peopled by naked innocents & demonic animations. It is a world at the still crossroads of extremes where, in the dread silence Fear & Beauty exchange a sly, knowing glance. Half-made children float against a uniform white background-isolated & distant form us. Their own budding sexuality betrays them-advertises its presence in livid pink blushes.
