The exhibition was planned in conjunction with Earth Day and Dina Tottans’ mixed-media works delicately engages in acts of bricolage, playing with the meaning of found objects. Each work is like looking into a microscope focused on an imaginary Natural world.

The strength of this mythology is enhanced by Torrans’ ability to frame three dimensions on a two dimensional plane – rupturing the viewer’s sense of perception by inviting attention to detail and a “World of Wonder”.
