About the Item
Shani Mootoo grew up in this house in Trinidad. She returned as an adult and created a photographic memoir of its interior in her ‘History Revisited’ series. Her images of these rooms are not curated. This is the foyer. A book shelf cluttered with a variety of objects sits in the center frame. Family portraits hang above it on the wall, and the viewer sees a glimpse of two other rooms: dark wood cabinets in the dining room, a mannequin in a bedroom. Mootoo’s photos are nostalgic in that they chronicle how time and the generations who have lived here have transformed these spaces.
“It is there in that house that I see my roots and I wanted to record the marks on it before time takes it away forever.” Shani Mootoo

Sharon's Sunroom 1/5 - A photograph of carefully curated collected items
By Shani Mootoo
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Known for her photographic portraits of interior spaces, Shani Mootoo reveals the curious and often emotive personal narratives of her subjects.
This giclee print by Shani Mootoo is editioned, 1/5. The work is matted, framed. Unframed size is 21 x 31.5 inches. It is also available in two other sizes, 12 x 28 (framed 21 x 27 inches, edition of 10, $2,000); and 16 x 24 inches (25 x 33 inches framed, edition of 8, $2,600.).

"I was at my printer's studio working on a body of photographs when we were interrupted by a customer who needed his attention for a few minutes. I agreed on a pause so that that customer could be accommodated, and my printer suggested I roam the garden, as there was a lot to see there. Just before the exit to the garden was a room crammed with pastel knick-knacks. A glass sliding door stood closed between me and this room, which seemed to be a combination of very special private space and a storage room. I immediately had the sense that I was seeing a photograph waiting to be taken and, as I had my Sony Rx100m7 camera around my neck, I ran back to my printer and asked if I could go into the room. He generously said, 'By all means, go wherever you'd like". On entering, there wasn't much room to negotiate, but I was struck by the carefully...
