A year ago today my dad died. I lose my breath a bit every time I think about it. My dad was an extraordinary person who was charismatic and brave and kind. He had a vibrant personality and an exceptional mind and I miss him every day. He loved photography, satirical comedy and animals (meerkats and greyhounds especially). He made me a doll’s house based on our love of greyhounds. He travelled North America with my mum on motorbikes and designed clothes for her in Hong Kong. My dad saved everything I made him when I was little, and along with his other favourite things he treasured them. I’ve put them in this still life that I’ve titled ‘things I kept from my dad’s house’.  He was a talented photographer who loved his film cameras and I hope he would’ve liked these pictures too
