‘Mirrors, Windows, Portals’ brings together an intergenerational group of artists exploring embodied approaches to the photographic archive. The exhibition is the culmination of conversations between Assunta Ruocco and the late Alison Lloyd, about the commonalities in their projects re-animating photography archives. Both artists made large bodies of photographic work when at art school or shortly after, respectively in the early 2000s, and in the late 70s, which they shared through social media in recent years as @romilly_crescent_docs and @ourdaysofgold_film. In developing the exhibition, Lloyd and Ruocco questioned how artists’ archives might become contemporary, or images from the past might help configure the way we think of ourselves in the present and project onto the future.
