The characters Tarryn Gill creates perform a similar function; they draw from a reserve of strange and familiar images - gods, monsters, the Ricky Horror Picture Show, sculptural antiquities, medieval illustration, Muppets, her family, her cat, herself – to reach into the heart, brain and belly and draw something deep out into dialogue.
