Animate: Re-working the David Knights-Whittome Archive
By Pamela Jane Wheeler Housed in the London Borough of Sutton Archives are thousands of photographic glass plates c.1907-1917, by one David Knights-Whittome. 'Animate' is a creative documentation of the investigation into the plates, through the re-working of the original photographs. Using a personal photographic process, varied outcomes are created that seek to portray the emotional and theoretical journey the collection has taken Pamela Jane on. It is combined into a fascinating collection of new imagery and insightful theory - capturing the magical notion of photographs, their subjects and their place in the present.
