Memory as Medium: Deconstructing the Family Photograph

Kacey Crossley is a mixed media artist from Manchester whose practice explores memory, family, and emotional truth. Working from old family photographs, she reinterprets these images to uncover the layered, often contradictory realities behind them—challenging the surface narrative a photo may suggest. Through this intimate process, Crossley invites viewers to reconsider the stories embedded in their own familial pasts.
