Abstract (English)

Booklet featuring five artists from Winnipeg. Dempsey reflects on modern consciousness (the desire for information paired with a sense of apathy) and the community/climate of Winnipeg, to provide a context for the works. She calls attention to how seductiveness and beauty are undermined by complex issues relating to the body. Bateman situates the works within the context of Dempsey's practice (as artist and curator), exploring narrative, transformation and deconstructing "monstrosity." Includes statements by the artists. Biographical notes. 5 bibl. ref.
