Mary Buchanan Bailey is one of the few serious social commentary arts workers in Tasmania. Since the 1980s she has been exhibiting highly individualised art works and short stories on women and individuals and groups marginalised by age, race, class and gender.
Her work has been shown in numerous group and joint shows, seven solo exhibitions and two touring solo exhibitions.
Her visual and literary work uses the contemporary world as a metaphor for the complexities of human relationships.
Her current work explores the impact on individuals and the community of the progressive closure in the 1990s of the public mental health institutions and their related support facilities.
This exhibition proposal is for a range of mixed media works and mono-prints mounted on canvas ranging in size from 96x61cm to 31x31cm and a limited edition short story.
