Exhibition Extended to July 30
Continuing to give form and colour to the complexities of intimate relationships and personal moments of great change, Moran’s most recent paintings draw on her observations of the social dynamics at play within a childhood clique. The title of the exhibition refers to specific roles assigned to each individual in a young girl’s ensemble, foreshadowing what later may become the toxic moving parts of a governing body or cult. Fascinating to Moran is these children’s ability, at such a young age, to self-assemble, to recognize dominance and submission, and then to exercise this duality with fervour and intention.
