veritas - goddess of truth
found and recycled paper including: newspaper, packaging cardboard, magazines, paper napkins, kitchen paper, wire, zipper, tulle, ribbon, cotton yarn, sewing thread, coloured pencils, acrylic paint artist statement 'Veritas' is the Goddess of Truth a warrior needed in this time of fake news and alternative facts. Barefoot, her steps are measured. She is surefooted and true. With the truth constantly under attack the news is couched and cushioned to construct her clothing. We are all witnesses to the politicians who speak in half-truths and circumvent questions of accountability. We watch as witnesses are silenced and women's voices are unheard, when science and institutions are attacked, and climate change is disregarded out of hand. Stand up, speak your truth, fight for justice and an end to censorship. Criteria for entries in the paper category - works must be 90% paper.
