Three Sisters: In Her Trilogy of Performance Works, Tanya Mars Explores the Origin of the Female Species
Canadian Art, Summer 1989, v. 6, no. 2, pp. 65-67
Elke Town's favourable review of the performance art trilogy by Tanya Mars; she critiques each work as a socio-cultural narrative. "They are the tales of two women and a girl, each in active pursuit of her desire. Elizabeth I in Pure Virtue, Mae West in Pure Sin, and Alice (of Wonderland) in Pure Nonsense...navigate the perils of politics, sex and psychoanalysis by seizing power, staying single and having an adventure."
