Skye Parrott: First Love, Last Rites
In a new New York exhibition, Dossier Journal founder and 2DM photographer Skye Parrott turns her lens on a foggy past to explore the fluid, treacherous reconstruction of memory. With the help of some friends she explores a formidable gap in her photographed life, a turbulent time from which no images of her exist. Through an attempt to reconstruct the spaces and relationships of the time from memory, physical artefacts, and a conflicting interview with a then central figure in her life, she dives deep into a haunting realisation that what is remembered is quite possibly not what is real.
Opening at Brooklyn’s Capricious Space, a self-described sanctuary from the city linked to the emerging fine-art photography publication, Capricious Magazine. Friday, November 19th from 7-9pm, Capricious Space, 103 Broadway in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
