Picture House

Jeffrey Moss, a film maker
'I travel all the time, so my home has to be a place of calm, somewhere I can spend time just to burrow in, get cosy and gather myself'

 

'It feels like we're always talking about what's new. Old photos help me look at the past and see that the people back then weren't so different from us today.'




Jeffery moss is a film maker who like to travel alot he works for big-name American clients. The first thing you notice about this house other than the enviably large rooms, high ceilings and wooden floors are montages of old photographs.  He hopes ' People walk in and get stuck in front of the wall' some of the stories that are captured by the pictures and watched her cynicism melt away. ' The stories, though have to be made up, as Jeffrey doesn't know who any of the people are.' They're part of a collection he started years ago- none taken later than about 1963. ' Filling the space has been like working on an art project.'
