Wish I Was Here

Wish I Was Here is a work made specifically for
The Kitchen Window Gallery by Caroline Gregory that reflects 
on a housewife's ambivalence.

She is in love.

She feels trapped.

She stares out of the window as she tries to negotiate the difficult space 
that is somewhere between the inside and the outside.

She has been driven mad by ghosts of the past
and demons of the future.

She has reached a trance like shadowy state where she 
is neither here nor there.

Wish I Was Here opens on Sunday 28 September from 2pm to 5pm 
and closes on 24 October. 

Gregory's work often involves the re-appropriation of ingrained beliefs that may be contained in everyday spaces and objects. She plays with found materials, objects and occupied and unoccupied spaces, working to transform meanings contained within the seemingly innocuous.
