more a manipulative hyperchondriac ! Doing an extract from Lรช's Les Dits d'un idiot "Ariane" is the narrator's mother. It's an odd choice of word

ยซ Ariane courait chez son esculape pour la moindre rougeur sur la peau ยป

Return to the Valley of the Dolls
Collage made from Ladybird books, Playerโ€™s cigarette cards, 1960s Parade and Womenโ€™s Realm magazines and 1960s wallpaper with acrylic marker, felt tip and watercolour
A colourful collage made from images of a blonde white woman keeling wearing only pants with her arm covering her breasts, a white hand holding a rose, a dolls house and a television and a piece of brown and beige striped wallpaper, surrounded by drawing of yellow leopard print and pink organic shapes that look vaguely like a foetus and internal organs
