JAMIE DIAMOND
FAKING IT

13 Jan 2024 - 10 Feb 2024

The idyllic nature of the motifs reveals itself to be a subtle strategy. A mother with her child in her arms appears in various everyday situations: in her home and garden or on the move, in the city, in the country, on vacation. This exhibition shows photographs by Jamie Diamond from the series I Promise to Be a Good Mother, which she has been working on since 2007. The scenes initially seem familiar, as from family photo albums or well-known subjects from art history, but at the same time appear strangely posed.
