Visible Whispers was an unexpected gift from a significant life upheaval. Major surgery required Jacqui to take an extended hiatus from her career in London to recover in her family home in Sydney.
The occupations and outlets of work and play that most of us take for granted were suddenly unavailable. What took their place was an inundation of flowers, tokens of love and goodwill from family and friends, that came to form a backdrop to days of quiet, housebound solitude.
One day she picked up her sister’s camera and began to explore the intimate geographies of these creations of nature. Experimenting with light and composition, and then deploying her professionally-honed skills of digital manipulation, she began to produce larger-than-life images imbued with imagination and restless energy, each telling a unique story.
The more images Jacqui created, the more inspired she became to explore the aesthetic potential of a single flower to capture a moment, a memory, a spirit. What started as a distraction turned into an obsession and a labour of love, and Visible Whispers is the result. Enjoy.
