A series of haunting black and white images produced by Sarah Pickering during a residency at the UK Fire Service College from 2006 – 8. Taken from purpose built environments that have been repeatedly set on fire and extinguished, the blackened spaces reveal traces of human presence, yet remain strangely pristine. The work can be experienced on many levels, from the formal aspects and tensions inherent within the richly textured compositions, to the implied narratives and their associations with extreme events such as war and disasters. Selected from an open call for submissions. Organised in partnership with Brighton Photo Fringe 2008. Talk by Sarah Pickering: Monday, 3 November 6 pm, free.
