Lois & Carey

"Lois & Carey" is a photographic series that explores the intimate, intergenerational relationship between Lois and Carey, a daughter and her mother, both Jewish artists living in London. Set entirely within the walls of their home, the project is a nuanced portrait of familial closeness, personal expression, and the unspoken tensions that shape lifelong bonds. In capturing the microcosm of one family, it speaks to broader truths about womanhood, queerness, aging, and the quiet revolutions that happen within the home. At its core, the work is about the complex dance between mothers and daughters - how identity is inherited, resisted, and reinvented. The tension between queerness and family legacy is treated not as conflict, but as coexistence - messy, honest, and real. In "Lois & Carey" the home is more than a setting - it is a living canvas. Mother and daughter weave their worlds together through brushstrokes and pencil lines, sketches, birds and tattoos, each mark a whisper of memory, a fragment of feeling. Their art spills across walls and tables, into the corners of rooms, folding daily life into a quiet, intimate performance. Throughout the book, their collages and drawings intertwine with the photographs, blurring the line between life, memory, and art. With sincere gratitude to Lois, Carey, Roger, and Spencer, who welcomed us into their home with open arms, letting us feel truly part of their family. We invite you to feel rather than to analyze, to absorb the texture of a relationship - rather than define it.
