"Waiting" - An Installation Exhibition by Penny Harris

On the death of my father I returned to the hospital to collect his clothing and toiletries. I held them in a white plastic bag. Rather than discard these things I cast them in bronze and gave them permanence. This work became the seed for this exhibition. - Harris
