Steph Shipley's work gently and evocatively takes us to other: other times, other places. Her visual, textual and sound pieces bring us a sense of elsewhere. An invitation for meditative reflection of memory, of place. Drawing us towards deeply held senses of longing and residual memory. We are haunted by the spoken and the unspoken. Given fleeting glimpses of familiar and unfamiliar landscapes like stills from half remembered movies.
