Isobel Egan

Isobel’s work suggests secret compartments where we can store or hide our memories. It questions the stability and durability of our homes and our environments, the reality of the walls that we construct around us. Viewers are invited to contemplate their own experiences of space, childhood and memory.
The box structures are like micro works of architecture. They represent environments for the nurturing of imagination. The walls in these pieces, although somewhat malleable, represent the essential boundaries that define personal integrity.
