Laura from Sophisticated Boom Boom, Jill and friend, 1982. Peter: 'This is one of Jill's performance pieces at the Glasgow School of Art. Jill wrote the piece and made the clothes. I don't know what it was all about. Art, you know, you're not supposed to ask. Jill did a series of these, Rose was in one as a polka dot ballerina in a polka dot mask in a giant box.'
