An exhibition about everyday treasures.
Rosario arranged for us to meet with Carl Clerkin, he kindly introduced us to his latest exhibition. It was set in an old house in Ealing Broadway.
Upper galleries; designs that capture the essence and stories that took place in the house.
There were some beautiful aspects of the house I wanted to document.
The lower gallery exhibits photography of people and their surroundings at home, they were relatives and friends of the curator. Below is an installation of all the objects found in the house.
There was a brilliant 20 minute film, where about four people were interviewed regarding the way they hoard. It was called possessive. Each person was quite different. It was interesting to have an understanding as to why they hoard.It was great to hear the curators side of the story. I thought it was a refreshing exhibition. I was a little disappointed when reading his gallery guide, as it had many errors. He admitted that it was last minute. It's a shame as it lets show down some what.
