Girl with the Lantern which forms part of a larger series of colourful
sculptures based on the slim novel called ‘In Watermelon Sugar’ by the
American writer, Richard Brautigan. Cavaliero Finn was particularly
drawn to these pieces, their bright colours and playfulness. Mimi
creates these sculptures by tracing and taping each chapter of
Brautigan’s surreal landscape which are reflections of displacement
within imagined utopias and dystopias. Each sculpture relates to a
chapter in the book, featuring the words from Brautigan’s novel.
