Free Range 2010

The project I have been working on over the past year was exhibited at Free Range this past weekend. ‘The Forgotten Ones’ is a series which looks at the invisibility of elderly people in contemporary society. Elderly people are obstructed from view, keeping their identity hidden and separating them from the viewer in an attempt to reflect the way in which I feel many of us see the elderly. The show was very succcessful and i received some lovely comments from people about my work as well as some very interesting ideas about continuing the work and other things I could include. I always love to get feedback, good or bad, so this was a treat and thanks to everyone that shared their thoughts. My work was picked out from the UELPHOTO10 show along with the work of print maker Lizzy Stewart and photographer Craig Madden and was featured in a review of the show on Creative View. This was a bonus and I was literally grinning all weekend. The article can be found here and the full series can be seen on my portfolio. Enjoy!
