Patricia's Room
12 October – 24 November 2023
‘Patricia’s Room’ explores the onset of dementia through a series of intimate portraits of Patricia at ninety. Across a series of intimate portraits, it challenges us to consider how we often dismiss older people, particularly at a time when they are at their most fragile.
What happens to our sense of self when we lose our memory? How might we feel?
Jennifer Blau is an award-winning photographic artist and author of The 50 Book: Women Celebrate Life. Her work explores story and identity in people who may be marginalised or experiencing challenges in life.
