Taking inspiration from vintage prints and photographs, The Love You Taught Me is a large-scale installation that combines my artwork with pieces of fabric, garments and objects of unique and interesting origins. The installation consists of a grid of A2 images on wooden panels, mounted upon a wall and placed within a conceptualised suburban diorama, the images themselves becoming contextual objects rather than 2D prints.

The installation touches upon themes prevalent in much of my work, such as female identity, the aspects of human relationships that go unspoken, and the corrosive power of repression (both sexual and emotional). The interplay between the various images on display paints a complex and multi-layered narrative of suppressed femininity, reflected in the fabrics draped throughout the piece, sometimes reaching from one image to another, at other times crushed between multiple layers within a single panel.

Even the photographs themselves have been distressed and re-photographed using a light-box, the characters sullied and the images given a physical history. The discarded objects, textiles and patterns suggest personal attachments and obsessions, whilst the floral decorations and nature photography offer an erotic counterpoint, a vitality and yearning at odds with the worn domestic facades depicted elsewhere in the narrative.
