Italian Holiday
A project for Zero Gallery, Piacenza (now Milan) in 2002. Guidebooks found in second-hand bookshops in Eastbourne and an old photo album containing postcards sent from Italy in 1951 were the starting-point for this series.

‘Guidebooks promise to help us do one thing that all great works of art also help us do: to notice rather than simply to see.’ Alain de Botton, catalogue essay, ‘Italian Holiday’ (2002)
