Charlotte is one of a series of angels
made to remember those killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. "We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another." Luciano De Crescenzo The Caregivers explore the pain of placing an ageing or infirm parent into a care facility.
"Anytime you have been with another person who is suffering and have been unable to take the pain away, you have been at the cross with Mary” “If you have ever had to place an ageing parent with a debilitating disease in a facility for the infirm, you know what it is to stand beneath the cross.” Joyce Rupp Rachel is one of two dolls exploring the dilemma of caregivers and those living with dementia.
"Those with dementia are still people and they still have stories and they still have character and they're all individuals and they're all unique. And they just need to be interacted with on a human level." Carey Mulligan Monica is the seventh doll in a series called 'Ladies a Plate', celebrating hospitality and friendship. Griselda is the sixth doll in a series called 'Ladies a plate', transporting us back to the fifties and tea parties. Gwendoline is the fifth doll in a series called 'Ladies a Plate'. She is made from a tea towel decorated with Portmeiron design, and an embroidered peg bag. Myrtle is the fourth doll in a series called "Ladies a Plate". This series remembers those women who always responded generously with a plate of home baking whenever the call went out "Ladies a plate!" Emmeline is the third doll in a series called "Ladies a Plate." It celebrates the wonderfully delicious occasions of morning and afternoon tea. Adelaide is the second doll in a series called "Ladies a Plate".
This series honours those women who keep up the traditions of home baking. Fairy Bread Come up here, O dusty feet! Here is fairy bread to eat. Here in my retiring room, Children, you may dine On the golden smell of broom And the shade of pine; And when you have eaten well, Fairy stories hear and tell. Robert Louis Stevenson |
