> STATEMENT

Odette England is motivated by exploring the axis of two prepositions - versus and re - as they relate to intimate photography. Visibility versus void, interruption versus continuity, static versus recurring. [Re]counting, [re]staging, [re]construction.

Part history lesson and part ethnographic inquiry, England's work functions as a biographical study of the flux of time. Her identity is the foundation for her creativity. She picks at her past - relationships, critical events and personal moments - often manipulating and compressing memories until they reach what she calls a ‘temporal minimum'.

Capturing strong emotions by private means is England's purpose. She analyses the architecture of presence and absence, surveying these independent but related spheres to stimulate a [re]thinking.
