New work in collaboration with Tim Fowler

Prison Portraits & Prison Dress: A collaboration with Tim Fowler

With this third artist collaboration in the 2022 exhibition, I wanted to introduce something very different. I chose to work with contemporary painter Tim Fowler to create portraits from some of the prison mugshots. I often talk about giving colour and personality back to the lives of these women in contrast to the black and white photos and limited official records we have for them. These embellished paintings definitely do that.
