Sadie Hennessy
Whitstable based artist and Print Block
member Sadie Hennessy is currently
showing her work in 'Identity Parade'
at the Ort Gallery 500-504, Moseley St
Birmingham.
Sadie's exhibition explores themes
of identity and personal representation.
Her collages, prints and 3D works
investigate the role of women in society
especially as they grow older. The work
reflects a fascination with the
objectification and sexualisation of
women in western culture, and considers
how women collude with these processes.
