Madeleine Fenwick is a multi-disciplinary artist primarily trained in the traditional media of oil painting and drawing. She also engages, however, with diverse other media ranging from dance and performance to 3D installations and print making.

Madeleine’s experience of living in the city of Valletta for the last 6 years has influenced her greatly. The pure architecture of the city and the combination of its natural rock and the man-hewn order laid into it, is a source of much inspiration as can be witnessed in her drawings. The pure architecture of the city and the combination of its natural rock and the man-hewn order laid into it, is a source of much inspiration as can be witnessed in her drawings. Also driven by the layered threads of our human histories within the city, the installation model exhibited here was created in collaboration with the Subjective Maps Project as part of V18. Over 100 stories of diverse relationships to the city were collected and collated, and transposed on the model. The local and the social networks of the inhabitants who work and play in the city, the professionals, the housewives and the priests, the tourists and the patrons, and many others, each weave a separate, but interlocking, existence superimposed on the physical fabric of the city.
