The Sideboard II

The Sideboard II 2009 Tales from the East series black Biro drawing 42cm x 30cm

This triptych portrays memories of a small child at play within the safety of ‘home’, before the onset of war. Inspired by the girl in the red coat from the film Schindler’s List 1993 Steven Spielberg  as she wanders through the Kraków Ghetto while it is being liquidated by the German Army during WWII. The triptych features Jane's niece, and contemplates victims of conflict as individuals rather than statistics.
