I am glad Mareea said yes when I asked her to exhibit at Nitroglobus and challenged her to show another side of herself, meaning out of her comfort zone i.e. her beautiful landscape images. She choose claustrophobia as the theme for her exhibition.
Mareea also 'dressed' the gallery, which she did in her own impeccable way.
The poster was made by David Silence and is based on one of the images of this exhibtion.

Mareea's description of the exhibtion:
A form of anxiety, disorder; claustrophobia is defined as an irrational fear of small, confined spaces. The feeling of being trapped, with no way to escape, can lead to panic attacks. Approximately 10% of the population is affected by this mental disorder.
Why I have chosen claustrophobia as theme for this exhibition? Because we live, these days, in a confined, pandemic universe of our own, and we are all more or less “claustrophobic”, even without suffering from this disorder in our normal, healthy lives.
This exhibition is my metaphoric way to express those feelings, trying to rationalize them, in order to make them endurable.

A Beautiful surprise on the church roof this afternoon :-) www.bto.org/learn/about-birds/behaviour/plumage-abnormali...
Some folks, me included, think the southwest facing side of Prayer Rock located between Bryon and Garland in Big Horn County Wyoming looks like the profile of Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the United States. This is one of many mimetoliths in Northwest Wyoming. A mimetolith is a natural topographic feature, rock outcrop, or rock specimen whose shape resembles a person, a real or imagine animal, a plant, a manufactured item or any part thereof. Visual pattern recognition like seeing shapes in clouds and rocks; seeing faces in inanimate objects or abstract patterns is a normal humans tendency. This tendency called pareidolia, was once seen as a mental disorder but is now seen as common and normal in humans.
In fact, some folks see two faces here. Can you see Mr. Lincoln’s profile in the photo? Can you see the second face?

Published by Finch Publishing, an imprint of Simon & Schuster.
It's available in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa at the moment. My publishers are looking to potentially open distribution deals with the UK and US, too. But that will come later (they're tight markets to pull from this little corner of the world!).
It can be purchased, as far as I know, from here, in the meantime.
It was only launched at the end of last month. It is based on my diaries. It has recently been endorsed by the Eating Disorders Foundation of Australia.
I am still a little sensitive about the title and cover. I chose neither.
An overgrown courtyard at the West Lawn Building at the now-abandoned Riverview Mental Hospital in Coquitlam, British Columbia. Built in 1913, it was originally named "The Hospital for the Mind at Mount Coquitlam," and housed the most seriously ill male patients transferred from the Provincial Asylum in New Westminster.
The facility finally closed its doors in 1983.
