Honeywill creates ‘worlds’ that encapsulate the different perspectives of the child and adult. While the grouping of objects beneath the table in ‘Evidence’ may hint at the games and alternate realities that can unfold beneath its canopy, its white padded surface evokes the warmth and protection of a quilt while also calling to mind the more terrifying possibilities of the padded cell.
