Description
Title: TILTING, 2010
Note: The Legacy exhibition was described by Joanne Savage for Culture Northern Ireland in March 2010 as, "…a mosaic of memories and historical reflections, a fresh look at the Titanic and a witty peeling pack of Ulster's palimpsest. Its range of reference is dizzying. Duffy seems the shrewdest and perhaps most inventive female artist working in Northern Ireland today. No other visual artist engages with the fabric of our history with quite so much gumption, imagination and chutzpah."The proceeds of the sale of this work will be go to the Northern Ireland Children's Hospice, Belfast.
