All that Remains
House clearances, charity shops, jumble sales and skips…
The significance of everyday possessions, heightened by absence…
If objects could talk of the dead, what would they say?
Taking in its sights ‘the significance of everyday possessions’, All that Remains is a powerful and poignant collection resulting from a collaboration between disciplines of art.
Featuring ten beautiful full-page paintings, interwoven with poems, it forces us to consider what we leave behind in the everyday items we have amassed.
