0207-18

A response to the art of a friend.

Taken during a visit to Grace Eden’s Glowing Older, a commission from The Renewal Trust, during its exhibition at St Peter’s Church. The models are for the most part local people in their sixties, seventies and eighties, photographed in locations significant to their everyday lives, often with props and/or costumes with a personal resonance, and the resulting portraits are presented in a style reminiscent of the pre-Raphaelite painters, with the intention of celebrating the often-overlooked beauty of the ageing process.

It amused me that the exhibition space itself should happen to reflect some of the themes of the commission: in the stained glass windows can be seen the words, “Remember the dead. Fight for the living.” Or could be, had the too-great contrast between the dim church interior and the bright sky outside not resulted in an area of negative so dense as to scarcely hold any burnable detail... and just where I needed it! Ho-hum.
