Trauma art 1992-1997 Strange Rituals from the Past   431 - 488

With a creative journey starting in 1992 with drawings of babues and toddlers, the tragic muder on the toddler James Bulger in February 1993,  marked a deep turning point in Jimmy's life. His life collapsed and between 1993 and 1997 about 450 works have been produced, mainly to externalise 'unfinished memories' and the bonding in the children's home "Helper Haven"in Groningen (1964-1965). The majority of the work has been destroyed in 2002.
