“Guest Room of One's Own"
Mixed Media Works

01 DECEMBER 2011 - 27 JANUARY 2012
Caro Toledo started collaging to make sense of the new world she found herself in after immigrating to Australia from France. It was an immediate, tangible way to transpose emotions and observations. Currently finishing a Master of Art, Toledo explores the domestic realm and looks at the games of intimacy, relationships dynamics and the spaces between reason and emotion.
The appropriation and recontextualisation of nostalgic imagery to which seemingly-unrelated text is added, bring ambiguity and humour to create new meanings.
Toledo’s work is indebted to the tradition of Women’s Work, time after time devalued, and, through the occasional use of embroidery, pays homage to women whose roles in the home were not heeded.
