A 15 inch square canvas painted flesh coloured red and that has been slashed horizontally numerous times. Through the gaps tea stained nappy liners that suggest layers of skin protrude slightly here and there with the word 'received' stamped on them in blood red. Elsewhere empty mental health medication packets protrude through all the slashes. There are lots of them jumbled and stuffed through the slashes. 2. A 15 inch square pink painted box that is 3 inches deep and has a glass face framed by the pink painted wood. A rope pattern protruding from the wood with a marks a border between the glass and the frame. Inside the box has a soft backing that is covered with tea soaked nappy liners reminiscent of skin. The word 'paid' is stamped all over the liners. On top of this, lying at the centre of the box are two red rubber covered spoons whose round parts face outwards. These depict ovaries. Attached is a red and blue rubber covered fabric uterus. Chains soaked in multi coloured paint reminiscent of tubes and visceral parts of the body surround the sculptured uterus and ovaries. 3. A wooden board 14x16 inches that has been covered with poetry that has been written in burgundy fabric markers onto scraps of cotton fabric soaked in tea. The text covers the board. On top of this and mostly obscuring the text, are further tea stained nappy liners reminiscent of layers of skin. On top of . the liners, a number of eyes and lips and mouths have been drawn in coloured fabric markers onto scraps of cotton fabric. The marks have a plastic like effect. Further liners are layered on top through which scraps of antique letters protrude. At the corners and partially obscured, several dates can be seen several inches high 1975, 1996, 2009, 2011, 2013. A goats head partially obscured with the word 'scapegoat' can also be seen slightly obscured by the liners 'skin.' The words ' I can see clearly now the rain has gone,' and 'you being the rain' can be seen at the top right of the artwork.
