The Life and times of Abigail Tackle chronicles the artistic dreams and aspirations of a fictitious elderly woman from the Prairies. Gabriola Island ceramist Mariko McCrae merges Abigail's dreams of one day visiting the oceans wide with her handbuilt ceramic efforts that are often anchored to historical examples. The result is a booty of work lifted from the annals of Christie's and Sotheby's auction catalogues that are made to walk the plank of contemporary subversions. Curated by Penny Parry.

I've always loved the idea of an entire narrative carried out on a body of work. This is wonderfully done. Thanks for sharing! You always find the best stuff:)
It's a great narrative isn't it?! I love narrative work.
