*Artist Statement by Nick Viney*

La femme de Grande Isle.
Is in mourning.
Turning her back.
Shame and disgust.
She knows she's sick.

Part human part fish.
Lace collar of net.
Net like gills.
Crown of a pipeline.
Rigs thorn her side.

In shadows and dust.
All seems black and white.
Mais non.
Follow the money.
