The Garden’s Edge [Stone wall, with grass and pathway, Rome-Italy] Photograph - Limited Edition of 1

Melanie Jayne Taylor's practice explores the use of photography as a site for ordering and archiving memory. She works with text components, video and installation strategies to display her extensive personal photographic archive; within these images she investigates the meanings of memory, loss, longing, absence and the complexity of time. Her recent work concentrates on creating systems and strategies of compilation and cataloguing as a means of managing the ever growing body of material in her archive.
