Tottenham’s ‘Front Gardens’: Linguistic Self-deceptions, Imaginary Landscapes and Urban Constructions

 Let’s name things shall we! Humans constantly game with make-beliefs to ideate imageries of love/hate. In this project we explore how we deal with nature with these quirky mind games after we’ve replaced habitats with bricks and roads and power cables while still maintaining this long-distance love/hate relationship. And just as how intimacies can be maintained with ever more words, the more we get our thesaurus challenged, the more we’ll find ourselves fantasizing about having actual (?) plantation upon our doorsteps without the trouble of confronting nasty chores and creepy things. Here in each work a conception of Tottenham’s ‘front garden’ is introduced. Viewers can then decide how convinced they are as they travel one step from the comfort of linguistics into the asperity of urban realities.

Editor's note: The Tottenham’s ‘Front Gardens’: Linguistic Self-deceptions, Imaginary Landscapes and Urban Constructions series was first published in Tottenham Community Press (Nov 2018).

Bring ‘em in Line! How to Lead our Lives with the Thinnest Thing of All

The routes we take are bound by all sorts of lines. But what are lines, if they’re not cracks in-between two adjoining surfaces? Master Jonjon’s “Bring ‘em in Line! How to Lead our Lives with the Thinnest Thing of All” is a photography series that expands our imagination on how our eyes, our body, our life choices and our consequences are led, defined and constrained by these slender creatures. Each work presents an object / tool in relation to the human endeavours that have contributed to its creation, use or completion. The viewers are then invited to explore how they might have calibrated themselves as if they’re in these situations through moving their eyes along the lines and their touching foreign bodies.

The project “Bring ‘em in Line! How to Lead our Lives with the Thinnest Thing of All” happens on Tottenham streets.

Editor's note: Part of the Bring ‘em in Line! How to Lead our Lives with the Thinnest Thing of All series was first exhibited in Tottenham Photography Club Annual Exhibition, Sep 2018 (Tottenham).

Blooming through Life: Explorations in Competing Urban Spatial Discourse is a series of three photographs depicting how architectures in Tottenham struggle between existence and neglect with the short-lived dandelion flower (withering within the day to produce the cypselae) acting as the subject of observation as an allegorical device. It challenges our self-conception as agents of humanism, annoying procreating weeds, genetic machines or symbols of romance and passion. In the three works the blossom is paired with Bruce Castle, The High Cross and Apex House. The petals face 1516°, 2018° and 2016° from north respectively, representing at least one point in time that they’re to be remembered (the year first mentioned in records to date; reopened as a pub; borough granted permission to demolish). The positioning of the pot alludes to average tendencies in modern political spectrum, behaviorism and personality theory. It is towards the end of the life cycle that the floret, representing ourselves, becomes more visible, but the ‘future’ construction works that crush upon our dead bodies are fuzzy and forever beyond imagination.
