Pam Davison has been using photography to tell stories and awaken memories since 2008. Nature is where she finds most of her inspiration. The beauty in the imperfect. The magic of mother nature.
Her love of black and white and the square image is both a curse and a joy and it is where she feels most free. The written word is also an intricate part of her work. Pam is a storyteller.
Her other great love is gowns and couture. How then to combine the two? She sought out renowned couture designer, Linda Britten. They have worked together on three projects combining Pam’s photographs and Linda’s couture designs. Pam is passionate about photography being printed on fabric, then recreated into a garment to bring the photograph and perhaps a memory back to life.
Pam finds herself once again exploring the photograph on fabric and how that photograph can be expressed on a garment. In this work she wanted her still image to become a moving image and sought another collaboration with Linda Britten and the magic she brings; this has been achieved.
Pam wants to offer more than an exhibition. She has created an experience, and a way to conjure up memories. Guests will step into a storybook and follow the story of an old woman learning to once again see the wonders of nature through a child’s eyes as they wander down a garden path. Guests can listen to the story through headphones or simply look while listening to the beautiful soundscape of this life, sitting quietly contemplating their own memories.
