Project Description:
This series stems from a recurring memory from my childhood, where my mother caught me lighting matchsticks under my bunk bed. I’ve been interested in memory as a theme in my work for many years, which was in part inspired by the music of Leyland Kirby (The Caretaker) and Ivan Seal (whom has produced artwork for “The Caretaker” album covers. The question that I constantly ask myself when I look at these works is “What if?”. What if my Mum hadn’t found out? What if the lit match caused a fire? What if I had hurt myself, or someone else? Although it’s an innocent example of child making a mistake, the consequences of my actions could have been far greater, something which I am acutely aware of as a grown adult. Looking at this series, I am filled with a deep sense of terror and unease.Try it!
