Painting Time

"One of contemporary fiction's most gifted sentence builders" Beejay Silcox, Guardian
trompe l'Åil will take her back through time, from her own childhood memories, to the ancient formations of the materials whose depiction she strives to master. And from the institute in Brussels where her studies begin, to her work on the film sets of Cinecittà, and finally the prehistoric caves of Lascaux, her experiences will transcend art, gradually revealing something of her own inner world, and the secret, unreachable desires of her heart.
Birth of a Bridge and Mend the Living.
