Oh god, when Georgie sent this photograph through to me, it made me SO happy! Look closely, and you’ll see she’s inserted you feel like home into the space behind existing fluoro tubing. Such an excellent idea! I’d love a bit of tubing in my studio… watch this space, lol.
How sweet is the wee scooter, in relation to the words - as I say so many times, context is EVERYTHING. The old scooter in context with you feel like home suggests that both her childhood and that the child living in this home are what makes home for Georgie… hell, I don’t even know if a child lives in this house, but that’s what I’m vibing from the photograph…
That’s why I freaking love seeing my work in situ, and also creating exhibitions which place my work in an environment: because the place artwork is seen in completely alters the meaning. Imagine the same print, seen above a bed in an adult’s room - see how you go into a different place in your head as to the meaning?
Thanks, Georgie, for saying yes to me using this photograph, and for making such a beautiful shot!
