These photographs are of children's toys left on graves in a cemetry in Dublin. They represent a personal memorial for children that have died young or during pregnancy. The artist photographed the toys against a white background so they could be seen as suggestive of the children they memorialised. He did not wish to document a cultural tradition. This work was produced during a residency at the Irish Museum of Modern Art.
