There is something about Kelly’s work that speaks to me. There is a detachment, an objectification about it. Though I personally think the word is over-used; the juxtaposition of posh clothing with the gardening tools hints at violence and a suburban dream. That the subject is rendered without a head makes me imagine a story; where exactly is she going with that ax?
More examples of Kelly’s work can be seen at her website.
