We interviewed Hema as part of our Preston Voices series and she agreed to take part in the Artist Response photo series by our lead commissioned artist Luke Richards. Here’s what Luke said about this photograph.

“

Hema works for Preston City Council and was based at home for lockdown
where she still works at the moment on her laptop.

The workload continued to be full and busy but whilst not working she enjoys cooking in her recently designed kitchen. Several images create her final images and the texture and backdrop are that of various spices that she uses to cook traditional Indian
dishes.”
