Carrier Series (Numbers 1-4), 2021, inkjet print.
​
These miniatures were created during the Covid pandemic to be exhibited with other artists in a letter press drawer, as part of 'Restriction', March 2021, Clayhill Arts, Somerset, UK, curated by Amanda Lynch, Correspondence Collective. Due to a very delayed postal service, they are still flying around somewhere, having not landed in time for the exhibition.
​
Built upon threaded, collaged handcrafted images that are captured digitally, these miniatures reflect on how our movement and communication was restricted in many ways. My use of threads relates to processes of binding and unbinding which can be both comforting and unsettling. I have used paper stencils of pigeons in this photographic series with reference to their innate homing and messenger abilities. These early, nostalgic forms of live communication are contrasted with our online forms of fast communication, and speak of connections and longing for tactile relationships with one another.
