Jo Spence in collaboration with Rosy Martin.

Photographed in Cornwall, this work is part of a series that addressed Spence's first childhood attack of asthma while on a caravan holiday.

Martin recalls that "On a holiday in Cornwall in 1988 Jo and I looked at our memories and histories. This was a re-staging of Jo as an adolescent and her memory of an asthma attack on holiday when she was a teenager."

We are grateful to Rosy Martin for her assistance in cataloguing this work.
