The secret house
The secret house is a large collection of models of interiors made mostly of wood. The interior spaces represent a personal reality – spaces where memories, observations, dreams, and ideas come together. The scale models stand at the crossroads of imagination and reality, inviting forays into both. The artist presents her work in two ways: She exhibits the models themselves and photographs of the interiors. Each discipline summons its own reality and experience. In the photographs, the spaces lose the tactile attraction of the models. The playful desire to wander around through the space is transformed by the lack of perspective into a puzzling aloofness. Fact and fiction seem to come together, but they also play off of one another.
