Cheryl Newman
My work explores the fallibility of memory. Using documentary, constructed images and text, these memories are described and manipulated. Lover, the village of my birth is a stage for real and imagined events. My series began from my wish to examine my memories of a, 'nude man' who lived with his Mother in a very conventional 1960's bungalow. This faceless young man with an erection, has become part myth with the passage of time. This series explores the fictions created between truth, reality and invention. Focusing on my early teenage years I use the images in a narrative context to revisit and reveal my story and to develop a personal and authentic visual language.
