Irene Farrell

Holy Maura Foley

The idea for this project came from my thesis topic, which was the therapeutic value of photography. I decided to make my grandmother, Maura Foley, the main focus of these images. Four years ago she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. In dealing with her illness and ageing I wanted to have photographs representing her for a time when she is no longer with us. I also aimed for the process to be therapeutic for her. The images are presented in a ‘family album’ style. They are all different sizes, styles and formats. Included are old black and white photographs which represent granny’s long term memory. Recent snapshot styles of portraits denotes being content in her short term memory. A more documentary approach to photographing my grandparents house represents the life she has left behind, the events that led to her being hospitalised and my grandfather holding their fractured life together.
