Liam Benson – Mrs Boss Slays the Malevolent Scoundrel
31 January – 26 February 2015
Mrs Boss is a gun-toting colonial hunter and a bearded lady. In the work, artist and performer Liam Benson takes Mrs Boss through the golden fields and pale bushland of the Monaro landscape in hot pursuit of her target. Successful in her mission, Benson portrays the commonly mocked bearded-lady as a hero, inverting the stereotype.
