Seasons End

Henderson began creating the work for this show during a one-month residency at Hospitalfield Arts, Arbroath, as part of a joint Over-Seas League Residency 2015.

The exhibition featured two large-scale sculptures, Garden Photographer Scarecrow and Body Fountain Fetch, which are extensions of past and present totems to seasonal change, pagan gods and goddesses, fairies and scarecrows.

Each work imbued with a distinct personality and functioned within the artists' unique narrative. For example Garden Photographer Scarecrow was a lofty body of plants, wood and fabric, which captured memories using a pinhole camera apparatus. While she stands, she remembers; while she remembers she photographs; her nervous system is a system of flash-bulbs. These large-scale works were accompanied by a series of soft costume sculptures representative of harvest, climate and moon phases.

Henderson also debuted a new film, Seasons End, begun in the vibrant and hectic city of Istanbul and completed following her residency in Scotland.
