A catalogue for you’re all I ever think about, a solo exhibition by Meera Margaret Singh that ran from 7 January to 22 February 2006.
This series of Meera’s C-prints elicit a sense of loss or vulnerability in relationships, be that between individuals and/or the spaces they occupy. Despite the fact that certain images portray a solitary individual, the presence of another is always felt.
Working with a large format camera, Meera developed her narratives using elements of material culture (the clothing one wears, the art on one’s walls) as clues to interpreting her characters. Notions of tableau, portraiture, and staged photography are evoked. Acknowledging that we live in a society that is consumed by reality television and obsessed with social trespass, Meera creates a mise-en-scene that allows viewers access into others’ spheres.
