DEAD MARRIAGE
Waitrose Reliquary: Dead Marriage (1999); discarded gouaches by the painter Douglas Binder (my first husband); Perspex; wood; canvas; papier mache; gold leaf; acrylic; Waitrose egg shells; glass; mirrors etc..
I hoard stuff: I kept all Doug's letters and all our daughter Ellie's drawings and paintings, often done on the back of his discarded work. The two are combined in this piece.
