We have had some very positive feedback after our last meeting when we were asked to work to the theme of SECRET. The word was interpreted in a variety of ways – from the secrecy of fog-shrouded landscapes and the brooding atmosphere in a reputedly haunted wood to the secret life of objects and the mysterious world of shadows in an urban landscape. Other inspired responses to the topic were a fictitious photostory of a secret affair, a video in slow motion of people walking, secrets hidden behind the wall in the former East Berlin and the series of portraits of family members holding pictures of their earlier selves.
