This description of her current\u00a0show sums things up beautifully:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Enriched by her studies in world folklore, ritual, and costume, her hand-cut collages and poems create an imagined mythology from found images and phrases. A psychedelic strain of \u201cEastern European granny decoupage\u201d, her work explores the relationship of women\u2019s folk art and poetry to the other world. Her first solo show, \u2018Shapeshifter\u2019 owes much to the scholarship of archaeologist Marija Gimbutas and chants of Maria Sabina, as craft comes to be viewed as a vehicle for glimpsing the sacred within the mundane.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Love!<em>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/privateprojects.net\/shop\/2017\/01\/14\/bethany-van-rijswijk-shapeshifter\/\">&#8220;Shapeshifter&#8221;<\/a><\/em>, is currently showing at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/privateprojects.net\/shop\/2017\/01\/14\/bethany-van-rijswijk-shapeshifter\/\">PRIVATE Gallery in Moonah Tasmania<\/a> until February 25, 2017.
