Pictures From My Heart features a selection of extraordinary new drawings made by Emma Talbot, which grew out of a desire not only for emotional honesty but also for a simplification of her working process. The result is a searingly honest series of ‘psychological stories’. There is a lot of telling here of personal memories and recollections. There are images of life and love, of coming home drunk and feeling bad, snippets of Pablo Neruda poetry and quotes from The Smiths all rendered in an elegant European script. In these diaristic drawings time is compacted – the now and then flow in a nonlinear stream, all executed through Talbot’s masterful knowing of her own aesthetic.
