Heather’s images are influenced and underpinned by her work as a forensic examiner. There are dark undercurrents and telling imagery of crime scenes remembered or perhaps the stuff of brain activity during sleep. In a lighter mood are images of the forensic examination of a friend’s face and the somehow nostalgic washing line full of drying rolls of film, the nude statue amusingly taking her place in the line-up.
Her work is developing through themes of her professional and private life, deeply emotional and yet her natural wry humour is still firmly evident.
