Description and images of Kate Barry's work Justice (After Margaret Dragu).

"The carefully titled work implies a riff. This piece is both a mirroring and an homage to one of Margaret Dragu’s most illustrious personas – Lady Justice. This role is something like a mask we employ when we feel less than fine, well, or victorious. There is a beautiful image I wish to return to over and over in my head. In the frame there is a rose in Margret Dragu’s mouth. Barry’s work positions itself in a historical lineage. This unwinding scroll reveals invocations of sexual violence, empowerment and intersubjectivity. This scroll is unending." (p.1)
