Statement

The Absent series focuses on the unsettling, even scary feeling one experiences when someone or something is not present in the usual or expected place. This work was created for the exhibition Absent  (Vandernoot Gallery, Lesley University, May, 2017), the third exhibition by the collaborative group The Uncannyists.
