    Summary:

    This is a representation of slytod, the controversial 1997 multimedia installation by Winnipeg artist Diana Thorneycroft. It features photographs from the exhibit and three critical essays about the artist's work and approach. "'slytod' refers to a tag game that my siblings and I used to play at night when we were children living on a military base in the heart of the Black Forest in Germany. Years later, I learned that 'tod' means death in German, and it is the notion of playing tag with death that permeates the installation."-Diana Thorneycroft
