Avondale 

Picture
Temporary Worlds, 2012
Avondale explores childhood through myth, folklore, and magical realism. Influences of myths from around the world intermingle with personal memory and create a universal interpretation of life’s journey. These memories are compiled and formed into the persona of Amy Avondale, who creates the fictional town of Avondale in her mind. The concept of the Hero Journey, where magical stages coincide with the development of the protagonist’s self-discovery, was a significant influence on the events that occur in Avondale. These include contemplation of the transitional stages of life, memory, and family.
