AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Working as both a painter and a draftsman in bohemian 1940s and 1950s Melbourne, Hester's work was unrecognised during her lifetime and compromised by the demands of motherhood and domesticity and by an illness that would take her life at age forty. 'Where is Joy?' is an exploration of creativity constrained by duty and of a life lived outside conventional morality. http://www.brisbane247.com/show_place.asp?fmt=b&place_id=6678 (Sighted 18/10/04)
