MARGARET LEE
Closer To Right Than Wrong/ Closer To Wrong Than Right
12 February - 9 March 2014
In finding the balance between one’s true desires and realizable good taste - displays of self control can take you very far. Inspiration can be found in the unexpected so keep an open mind. Don’t be afraid to borrow and steal as long as you make it your own.
Closer to right than wrong / closer to wrong than right... Either way, this one is for me but also for you.
