MISSING
HAMISH CARR
APRIL 20 - MAY 12, 2007
These works are directly derived from missing person files and combine text and portraiture to deliver authentic, yet counterfeit, imagery. In many ways it is the fluidity of memory real, imagined, constructed that is pursued here in relation to missing persons. In the popular collective memory, these people can be quickly forgotten, but for those directly affected the image remains firm, along with the recollections of times now gone, or for some missed.
