"Archival
Silence", an installation as part of an exhibition called
"Delicate Dissidence Five Women Artists",
at the Woodlands Gallery. "Delicate Dissidence is a multi-disciplinary
discourse on the materiality of memory, the critique of historical
truths, the telling of stories, the keeping of secrets ...
& how we conceal or reveal aspects of knowledge, history
and discovery."
"Nicholson
inscribes tablets with memories, dreams and desires. The way
the language is strung together pays homage to the female
literary tradition, especially train-of-thought
and places a feminine history and idea in the annals of history;
like epitaphs to be re-read throughout history."
Sarah
Gibson, Curator quoted in the exhibition catalogue.
