Paul Greenfield
SELF MADE
I am a baby boomer. I was raised to believe that it was important to work hard and accumulate wealth to enable happiness. My work highlights a group of baby boomers and the project has been described as 'People who have everything but nothing and nothing but everything'. What constitutes their treasure may be interpreted differently. What is 'everything' and 'nothing' in the lives depicted? I want the viewers to be slightly perplexed but also intrigued by the ambiguity of the images. The title might suggest that the viewers will be seeing images of material success. However, they may discover that the work depicts people who have made themselves, in a deeper sense, over a lifetime of experience and development.
