At the House of Mrs Millgate
At the House of Mrs Millgate is a temporal exploration of a modernist house in North London, which has been immaculately preserved since it was built in the 1950s. The film particularly focuses upon domestic artefacts that shape and influence our experience of the interior and provides a glimpse of a life lived through the domestic environment. The narration is mediated through the deliberate juxtaposition of carefully chosen objects that serve to ‘speak’ of the inhabitants. This experimental portrait of place is aided by the use of an archival recording of concrete poetry by Kurt Schwitters, which creates a context for the film.
The film reactivates domestic space through the juxtaposition of moving image and sound to generate new interpretations of modernist spaces.

Moving between national and personal narratives, my practice is an evocative meditation on places and their associated histories. Research rich and rooted within an inquiry of our surroundings, from institutional architecture to domestic environment, my work offers contemporary image of places by re-activating their latent social, cultural and political narratives in the form of moving image and its installation.
The key element in the work is the evocation of these narratives through the act of observation. The work explores what may lie beyond what the work simply represents and examines how this evocation can be reinforced in the process of making.
