# Project Description ‘Are We There Yet?’ Elizabeth O’Farrelly Summary Final work Elizabeth O'Farrelly is a London-based artist who has a multi-media practice, having studied BA (Hons) Fine Art at Chelsea College of Arts and completed a Foundation diploma in Animation at Camberwell College of Arts. Her practice spans painting, 2D and 3D animation, sculpture, installation and miniature model making and she uses these mediums to explore ideas of memory, nostalgia and home. These concepts arise in the mural, 'The Gift of Life' that she and three, fellow students designed for King's College Hospital and also in her work created at her recent residency at the Wimbledon Museum.

College Chelsea College of Arts Course BA (Hons) Fine Art Graduation year 2025 What happens to memories when the places in which they occurred are changed or no longer exist? How can you cling to them when the physical marks they have left are written over? Through ‘Are We There Yet’ my childhood memories are given permanence. I created nine miniature renditions of the places that were cornerstones in my childhood but are no longer reachable. Places that no longer exist or have been refurbished and changed. Made from polymer clay, paper and balsa wood, places such as the Pizza Express my family had birthdays in, the wendy house we had in our garden and the duck pond we’d frequently drive past will remain unchanged in miniature, allowing my memories and these places to be preserved forever, no matter what happens to the place in reality. Each miniature is presented on an insurmountable grass mound, (made from cardboard and static grass), representing the distant feeling of childhood memories and the inability to physically reexperience them, whilst also giving each miniature safety through isolation.
