Description
Feminist art from the trailer park.
Dirty Dishes is a first-class ticket into the creepy, cute, and totally absurd world of StrawBaby and the mind of its creator, Amy Lockhart. It chronicles the various facets of her process/thinking, from her paintings and drawings to cardboard sculptures of objects from her everyday life. Also included are stills from her animations and photographs of costumes used in her videos. Lockhart works in a variety of mediums, including animation, film and video, acrylic painting, drawing, costumes, comics, and small-press books, and she combines the various mediums as much as possible and lets them feed into and out of one another.
