In Recently, Sibley brings together two disparate pieces of work in a resonant dialogue. ‘Triptych’, rendered on discarded interior doors, is a portrait of local homeless people residing in doorways. Layering together traditions of Renaissance fresco, religious iconography, comic-book panels and the illustrations of childhood Ladybird adventures, Sibley elevates these so often ignored people from their position as street furniture to the alter of serious contemplation. For the creation of ‘Triptych’, Sibley has innovated new technologies with old techniques, undoing and remaking the gloss and precision of the digital image into a tactile analogue assemblage.

Originating from the group show Time at Maidstone Museum, the film Kairos investigates our relative experience of durational moments. Kairos explores how we imagine ourselves passing through time, examining the multiplicity of moments that shape our existence as temporal beings. Through the lens of Kairos, ‘Triptych’ becomes a complex meditation on the lived experience of time for those living on the edges of society.
