Pearce’s installation titled “Leaving Alone” links five separate artworks through a blending of poetry, nature, and art. The exhibition introduces a large, free-form mural inspired by the myth of Icarcus. Other components are influenced by authors Margaret Atwood and Virginia Woolf. Each work or group of works probes a different branch of the overarching story, about the fragility of life, the desire for security, and the necessity of conscience.
