I was blown away by Abigail Lorick's Spring '09 Presentation "A Room Of One's Own" last night. Every detail was accounted for, and then some, making me feel like I was swept away into various worlds that only existed in dreams. There was the "Demolition Party" that looked much like an old construction site with bricks and mortar piled high; the "Overgrown Garden", with a fountain, park bench and angel pillars; "In Limbo" which held broken glass chandeliers, wine bottles and television sets piled high on top of each other;  "Bedroom Disaster" looked like a proper old Victorian bedroom gone mad, with piles of mattresses that we were sure hid a pea beneath them (that's how details go with a lady like Lorick); there was "After the Storm" with its iron cast bathtub full of cattails and toads; and of course, "A Room of One's Own" with bookshelves, desks and old typewriters.
