Lily Hinrichsen’s assemblages, part of “Altared/Altered States: A Journey into our Dreams”,
at FLYNNDOG, Burlington, Vermont

Kimberly Musial Datchuk reviewed Lily Hinrichsen’s work in “Altared/Altered States”. Here is an excerpt from the review.

In “Altared/Altered States: A Journey into our Dreams” at FLYNNDOG, Lily Hinrichsen’s assemblages create a fantasy world replete with shadowy dangers, triumphs, and defeats. The thirty-five boxes, jointly referred to as “Homages to my Dreams,” consist of everyday materials, many of which have associations with childhood and women’s work, such as buttons, thimbles, pins, thread, and miniature dolls. The arrangement of the assemblages forms a loose narration about life, beginning with conception and moving through stages of innocence, independence, and finding love.
