Mother with Dead Flowers was made in response to the memories linked to a photograph shared with me during a reminiscence session with a group of older people from Radstock, Bath.
"Margaret, that were my mummy 15 years ago before I was born, I'm 86 so it's 101 years old. Now I'm 86 and that was taken 15 years before I was born. That picture we always had at home, it was always known as my Mum with the Dead Flowers."
