‘Be Alive With Me’ is an exhibition of portraits of emotion by Paula Rae Gibson, a photographic tribute to her late husband.
Curated by Katy Barron, it features 20 unique prints created using Gibson’s signature process – silver gelatin with hand-applied textures in paint, chemicals and chalk – the series charts a deeply personal period of intense love, life, and loss.Using analogue and darkroom photography, though more recently, digital too, Gibson’s work has always been a diary of raw emotion. Both autodidactic and observational, her practice is a process of discovery, of herself and of those in the world around her. Her dedication to the medium began after a life-threatening car accident aged 21, and over a decade later after the untimely death of her husband in 2004, it continued as a chosen antidote to her own trauma and loss.
To mark the week-long presentation, on 2nd October, Paula Rae Gibson will be in conversation with Martin Barnes, Senior Curator of Photography at the V&A.
