The visiting artist and adjunct professor of illustration at Pratt Institute at Brooklyn was in Kuala Lumpur to exhibit her works, some 20 portraits depicted in a dreamlike state. While several of her works are dark--like the one of her son with two bombs falling into the sides of his head--most in this collection are light and whimsical. Like women with cupcakes and wedding cakes on their heads. Foster reveals what she strives for in her art and also on her most recent project, capturing women.
