Wag the Dog

Elizabeth Hewson

Wag the Dog
2012

Elizabeth Hewson's work engages the viewer through the use of quotidian and surreal imagery. Through this juxtaposition, strange and sometimes humorous images are created. A play on words in three dimensions, part scientific, part sculptural, this strange creature constitutes a double take. Wag the Dog asks “What would happen if a dog had two back-end?” and in pursuit of an answer to this question provides wisdom, more questioning, or at the very least, a smile.
