Whimsical, happy-go-lucky poems + sinister below-the-surface meaning = most Mother Goose nursery rhymes. Ring Around The Rosie is, seemingly, a playful sing-along for children that is rumored to actually describe The English Plague of the 1600’s where 70,000 people died in London. Visually throwing the macabre and the cheerful together makes for an ironic and uncomfortable display that leaves you disturbingly unsure of how to think or feel.
