Important Artifacts and personal property from the collection of Lenore Doolan and Harold Morris, including books, street fashion and jewelry
A fictional account of a couple's relationship told in photographs of objects collected during their time together. The book which has been conceived by Leanne Shapton was inspired by the catalogue of an auction of Truman Capote's belongings.
"Mandy Prowse studied painting and printmaking at Maidstone College of Art. She explores natural and human forms and the interconnectedness of all things. Themes in her work relate to birth, mortality and metamorphosis. Her altered books are minimalistic and organic combining a modern aesthetic with an almost Victorian touch. If you told me these books were 100 years old I wouldn’t think twice about it.”
Jason Thompson, The Rag and Bone Bindery
