Untitled (Sarah & Arnold)

ARTIST STATEMENT

Dickins & Jones explores a building at the end of an era. The series is a visual investigation of a space that hangs tentatively in the balance between its functions, old and new.

What we see in the resulting images is a space still recognizable as a site of modern day commerce, but stripped back to its barest bones, clinging to the last moments of its present function.

Despite the overwhelming emptiness of the building, the images are far from being a blank canvas: In fact, it is this distinct, unnerving absence of people and products that brings a heightened relevance to that which would have previously gone unnoticed.

Our eyes are drawn towards the subtle, cumulative layering of traces left behind by nearly two hundred years of human presence within the building’s interior. Dirty silhouettes of clothing, products, fixings and furnishings become ghostly reminders of what used to be.
