In this “noonday dream,” a reference to Emily Brontë, one encounters a host of fairytale creatures, playing, sleeping or dreaming. The viewer is drawn in and becomes part of this r everie, which is interspersed with images of everyday family life, travel and game-playing. While the images in the artist’s previous series were raw and direct, Noonday glows with the ease of a summer afternoon and yet still leaves the viewer with the melancholy certainty that the days of one’s childhood pass by much too fast. Edited by Lars Müller with a contribution by Elisa Tamaschke. Show more
