In this noonday dream, a reference to Emily Bronte, one meets a host of fairytale creatures playing, sleeping or dreaming. The viewer is drawn in and becomes part of a reverie interspersed with images of everyday family life, of travel and of games. Where the pictures of the artist's earlier series were raw and direct, this work glows with the ease of a summer afternoon and yet still leaves a melancholy certainty that the days of childhood pass much too quickly.
