Each of the artists in Little Creatures brings a unique personal history to their work. All have lived abroad for some portion of their life and in their formative years developed their own distinct way of relating to their cultural surroundings. The artists incorporate diverse past experiences and process fragmented memories to create their own realities expressed through the animals and characters in their work. Often presenting their "little creatures" as fragments themselves, the artists' work creates commentary about feelings of disconnectedness, trying to relate to others, and perceived reality - all relating back to somewhat familiar archetypes of collective unconsciousness; the little creatures that we see with our eyes, in our conscious imaginations, and in our dreams.
