Work in progress.
Identity: it comes and it goes. We think once we’ve cracked it, it’s here to stay. But it’s sneaky. It morphs. You seemingly lose it overnight and yet, it’s never truly lost, just…different. You play around with it and you find the one that fits you. Or you wear it, chameleon-like, almost a mask. The clamouring badge of pride. The art of reinvention. Or you wade through the days, wildly searching for who you are and who you were and who you’ve yet to be.
A recurring theme for me, further explored in the ‘Noisy World’ project on personas and those in the public eye. Other people’s stories fascinate me and it’s a welcome breather from all that (at times, dull) introspection.

You Stopped Me And Asked Me Where I Got My Shoes From. You Were So Sweet. I Asked If I Could Take Your Portrait. You Agreed Even Though You Hadn’t Had Your Hair Done, You Asked For My Number And Said I Could Come For Dinner. My Stop Was Up And I Had To Run. I Never Gave You My Number And I Never Found Out Your Name. I Blew You A Kiss Through The Window And You Smiled And Blew Me One Back. I Think We Made Each Other’s Day. Goodbye Beautiful, Fascinating Lady. Sorry I Couldn’t Give You The Time And Attention You Deserved. 2021
