Little Red Riding Hood

All fairy tales reside in the fragile minds of innocent children.
Imbuing morality and foreboding. Le Petit Chaperon Rouge describes the journey from this place of innocence through the growth pains of transformation into adulthood. The journey through the unknown woods, the dark night of the soul... the choices we make along the way, the people we meet, the harsh lessons we learn.
A return to the black, white and red palette of the deck of cards, this collection invites the viewer to delve deeper again into the unconscious messaging in our collective cultural foundations.
The story of Little Red Riding Hood is full of deep symbolism and metaphor. It is a story of sexual maturation and the trauma this invokes.
To all the growing girls, feeling lost in the woods, there will be blood, and there will be stains can never be washed away; may you find peace on the other side.
