Shaved Rapunzel, Scheherazade and the Shearling Ram from Arcady

 

New Book coming soon:

 

Deeply rooted in a form of artistic ‘barefoot anthropology’ Shaved Rapunzel, Scheherazade and the Shearling Ram from Arcady reflects both on the culture of disconnection from the natural environment and the boundaries of art, gender and the rural everyday. It recounts the experiences of artist Orla Barry who has left the city and returned to her roots to be reborn as a hybrid: a farmer-artist.
