Excerpt:
“I mistook a handbag as a sculpture during my first visit to Linda Campbell Franklin’s home in Bolton Hill. Though the first floor of her home is filled with art, there are no defined boundaries that separate the art in her collection, the art she herself makes, her collections in progress, and the more ordinary articles of her life. There are a pair of framed artworks in the hall that succinctly exemplify this curious fusion: an illustration hung next to a painting, both depicting conjoined dog twins with two heads and no tail. Franklin’s home destabilizes the concept of ‘right side up’ and asks the visitor to take a more unconventional approach to orientation.”
