‘Recognise Me Now’ brings together the work of four photographic artists who each explore issues of identity and self perception through a variety of different approaches. The resultant works are striking and intriguing. The exhibition features work from Ruth Oliver’s ‘Cocoon’ series,  Kirsty Skears’ ‘Imaginary Friends’ project, Cat Fuller’s alternative family album project ‘How It Was and Still Is’ as well as James Macfarlane’s ‘Autobiography’.  From the use of representational objects in place of the figure, to layers of fabric that conceal or reveal the person behind the veil and photomontages that question the role of photographs in relation to personal memory, this collection is linked through the artists’ desire to learn more about themselves through their practice.
