“Three portraits of women ( Doña María de la Luz Padilla y Gómez de Cervantes , Mrs. Sylvester Gardiner , and Wyntje Van Vechten ) are juxtaposed with TRANSLUCENT THREADS OF DAWN (2016), an appropriated text by the early twentieth-century writer Ronald Firbank. His irreverent wit and suggestive prose underlines the ambiguity of the expressions in the portraits.” — Rob Wynne
