'The fourth wall', from Subtitled, 2010

'The fourth wall', from Subtitled, 2010

details about this work


Jessa Fairbrother is based in Sheffield, Yorkshire


Jessa Fairbrother is concerned with the exploration of identity, and the relationship between past and present. While at first glance her work may appear at times to draw on a romanticised nostalgia, the sense of ambivalence suggests a complex relationship between the individual and memory.
