    Work exhibited at the Public Library in Brighton.
    A collection of seven embroidered dusters commenting upon the expectations of women within a domestic environment. Popular fairy tale phrases are juxtaposed against definitions of domesticity, brutality, protectiveness and femininity, questioning the promises told through fairy tales to women and girls.
    Also exhibited: a collection of poems exploring the role of women in fairy tales with accompanying embroideries.
