Victoria Cooper - Dad'll do it

Medium: Cyanotype image, photo and texts by the artist on cotton hankie


I remember that he always tied knots in his hankie to keep it in place on his head and to soak up the sweat when he was working on things around the home. He had lived in this home (in the photo) for most of his life except for the time he was in New Guinea for WW2. Over the years he adapted and renovated this home to suit the changing needs of the family.
