Contemplative
Certain images Allen makes have no clear foundation; they surface depending on where she makes them or what entered her consciousness from what she has seen around her. The underlying impetus, however, is always about empathy, connecting oneself to another's' reality, finding a connection that binds disparity to create a whole.
