About the Book
“There is no hard and fast line between the ‘mentally ill’ and the ‘mentally healthy’. All of us have at some time or another suffered from the symptoms of a mental illness… indeed, it is rare to meet anyone who can truly say they ‘do not have a care in the world’”
(Ineichen, B, 1979)
Kayleigh is a documentary piece that has an insider element: capturing images of my close friend who suffers from chronic anxiety. Through gathering information and images from her past and taking present photographs, my work gives an intimate insight into my subjects’ life. I use subtle repetition and metaphor within my book to try and demonstrate her OCD tendencies, her worry, loneliness and the love she has for her family and the security of her home.
