Patty Carroll’s work entangles women and home. The photographs of Anonymous Women: Domestic Demise comment on the mania of collecting, accumulating and decorating a home, where the objects take over and the woman is surrounded or crushed by her own possessions and obsessions, leading to disaster, mishaps and mayhem. The still-life narratives are reimagined interiors filled with décor, engulfing a lone woman camouflaged with only bits of her visible: both victim and invisible creator, pathetic and humorous. The sequence follows her path from glee to gloom. Influences include vintage movies, still-life painting, decorating magazines, a suburban upbringing and the game of Clue; the work draws attention to the unseen heroic women who silently run a home, and to how possessions can substitute for identity.
