Eudaemon's zebra crossing
I made these images because I wanted to find out more about photographing Eudaemon and as I was doing them I was aware that I was thinking about Svankmajer's Alice (especially the drawer in the dresser) and also Greenaway's 'Zed & Two Noughts' which is another one of my favourite movies. The whole reason for getting the zebra was to remind me of that film. The zebra for me generally symbolises all the opposites, black and white, life and death, beginning and end.
It's always fun playing with reflections, mirrors are such good props for creating some meaning. So is the eye, of course, which Eudaemon is still holding. She's wearing the red one in these which she was holding before, she changed it round and now she's holding one of the blue eyes that she was wearing in the previous pictures. I should think things would look very different if they were perceived through a red eye immediately after looking through a blue one.
The images mean quite a lot to me, I mean narratively, but I don't want to be a picture bore so I'll just leave it there and hope they're open to different interpretations for different people.

Pedo Pete Pickles in Jars
It was a hell of a problem for the local community. Friends were lost, new alliances were made and it all became very personal.
Some said that they didn't mind Pete himself.... as a regular guy..... but they drew the line at the pickling. A few said that they thought anyone who came out and stated in public that the pickling was ok that they were just as bad as Pete. Others said what Pete did in private was ok, it was the advertising they objected to.
During an interview with a minority who set themselves up as the pickling police, Pete said it was really just a metaphor so where's the harm in it.
