Summary:

Throughout her career, Starkey's meticulously choreographed photographs have determinedly engaged with how women are represented in contemporary culture, an issue which is now centre stage. Starkey reveals women in moments of private reflection, alienation or social interaction that might otherwise go unseen: a woman fleetingly fascinated by another woman's reflection, or the attentive gaze of a mother carrying her child. Meanwhile, the large scale of her images suggests the recording of a monumental event. She is also witness to the powerful presence of women in our cities, from those she encountered growing up in Belfast to women and girls at recent street protests in London. -- publisher's statement.
