With echos of some of Vilem Kriz’s images as well as Man Ray & Joseph Cornell, Heidi Kirkpatrick constructs mysterious, surreal boxes that transport you into her beautiful interior world.
“I live with a substantial amount of physical pain and have for many years. In my continual search for an answer, as well as my way of dealing with the unexplained, I dissect my Gray’s Anatomy book. The pages find their way into my work, layered under images of those closest to me. The illustrations bind, clothe and wrap the body. Putting the inside on the outside, I wear my heart on my sleeve”.
