Front Garden Stories
(Texts Chris Rose)
Whether tidy or untidy, paved or grassy, front gardens are a hallmark of English culture, shaping our perceptions of the residents' social standing. Chris Rose has crafted brief narratives that uncover the tales concealed behind curtains and plastic fences. What I saw as an investigation of the class system through its visual manifestations transformed for Chris into an exploration of the ordinary, the strange, and the absurd lurking within those areas. This dual perspective led to an intriguing dialogue between texts and images.
