What do you think?



These are pictures of work by Francis Upritchard. She was born in New Zealand and now works in London. Her work comments on the classification of peoples according to collected ethnographic objects. I saw her work in Kate MacGarry gallery here in London and everything was set-up in such a way as to evoke a museum feel. Her work is very reminiscent of colonialism. I like how she brings together disparate objects to mock classification in museums. She encourages one to question cultural difference. I am interested in incorporating her work into my thesis.
