Peyton Keeler-Cox: Questions Nobody Asked Me
March 6–April 6, 2024
Student Gallery
In Questions Nobody Asked Me Peyton Keeler-Cox presents a series of photographs that connect to themes of memory, loss, grief, and care. Over many years, Keeler-Cox and her family developed a deep relationship with their neighbour Roy. Before his passing, Roy entrusted the family with the management of his estate. It is here, in Roy’s home, that Keeler-Cox pays homage to the memory of this friendship, taking photographs of spaces and possessions, and herself in relationship with them, and him. Peyton was the last person to see Roy alive. In this touching project, her photographs aim to bring his memory back into the house’s bare rooms and insert her presence as the caretaker of his remembrances and stories.
