Daring to defy barriers Last Bites
(about 2 months later)
Clare in the community started life in the social work magazine Care Weekly and transferred to Guardian Society in September 1995. Over the years, the dimensions and design of the strip have changed, as has the size of Clare’s head, shape of her nose and legibility of her dialogue. The cartoons in the exhibition cover Clare’s entire twenty year life. Last Bites launched on the back page of The Guardian’s Saturday food supplement, Cook, in April 2014. We ask chefs and prominent cooks what they would eat and drink as well as where they would be and who they’d be with for their last meal on earth, revealing a very personal sense of occasion to mark a life working in food. A little bit dark maybe, but a fantasy scenario that gave new insight into the personalities featured.
In 2004, BBC Radio 4 commissioned Harry Venning and David Ramsden to adapt Clare for radio. It has since won a Sony Radio Award, and the show is currently under offers for an eleventh series. The photography brief was to create a gorgeous, lush still life that captured the scene set by each subject. For the digital space, we experimented with cinemagraphs: gifs in which one element of the photograph moves. Whether a flickering candle, a nosy dog or a fly buzzing around a dish, the cinemagraphs add an eerie and ghost-like quality: the subject in question is not in the scene, and only a table of food remains.
