Her exploration of the photographic still-life, in which perishable materials -- raw fish, fowl, vegetables -- are combined with familiar, often feminine objects -- a schoolgirl's uniform, high-heeled shoes, a pocketbook -- trigger our senses of touch, taste and smell through vision and imagination.
