CreatorSusan KnightTrevor MeinTitleMargot's Mantelpiece Date2019MediumPigment print on archival rag paperDimensions90cm x 120 cmArtist StatementHistorically the mantel was a place to display our taste and values but has gradually disappeared from many contemporary homes. The Mantelpiece Series has been driven by a desire to capture and preserve images of the mantel as it tells a story about who we are. These very personal 'still life' arrangements are at times very consciously configured, an artistic clutter of precious objects and photographs. Some have a more eclectic and less choreographed aesthetic, hinting at curious stories. The tension between our private and public selves is fertile ground for the artist.Accession NumberG2020.29.1Credit LinePrivate donationAccess AdviceFor research purposes only.
