Carry Me Homeward
Greta Lorimer, Hayleigh Longman, Marguerite Minnot Thomas
A personal process, shared. An exhibition, in progress. Photographers Marguerite Minnot Thomas, Hayleigh Longman and Greta Lorimer present a patchwork conversation of three individual relationships with one common thread, Motherhood. As relationships develop and differ in time, the images that cement them will be displayed as a process. Audiences will be invited to contribute to the work by adding notes and observations to the display, taking collaboration beyond the group exhibition and into a wider frame of consideration that includes not just the artist and their subjects but the spectators as well.
Each artist has been exploring their unique relationship with their own mother, from the physical distance of a camera shooting, to the sharing of a frame. A fresh perspective on motherhood from the lens of the child as artist and agent, the bodies of work will come together in dialogue highlighting differences in conception and technique but uniting in a subject that is familiar.
