About the Item
Margaret Roleke creates politically aware work. Children’s war toys and packaging for these toys have fascinated her and become integrated elements in my wall reliefs and paper pieces. These reliefs and paper pieces read first as abstractions, only on close examination does one notice that they are composed of multitudes of “army men” or “war stickers”.
Roleke investigates popular culture and gender and draw attention to girl toys and boy toys, the consumerism of childhood, and war itself.
