Vaso spoke of her mother’s experience in hospital and made the
analogy of looking after a rose – ‘a
flower, which is precious, the essence of life, but if not nourished, you lose
it. This is the same with people who are being put in boxes and not being
looked after like they should be. The best we can offer is truly listening’.
Portrait of dementia - Vaso suggested that with artworks each
mark is open to multiple interpretations and expresses where our emotions are
at that particular time.
