'Memory is a Wilful Dog. It won't be summoned or dismissed ... It can leave you howling and it can make you smile.’
Elliot Perlman, The Street Sweeper
So i thought about Brett's memories, especially those of Wendy and of his heyday in the 1970's ... memories in the midst of his isolation and depression in the 1990's.
I wanted an image that did both - suggested Brett 'howling' and suggested Brett 'smiling', as the wilful dog came and went.
