Recalling memories of childhood.
After more than twenty five years working as Head Scenic Artist at the National Theatre in London, Vernon-Smith now makes work to share her own stories. She is currently exploring memories of childhood, including living with her Grandparents in a small terrace house in Tottenham, and the complex relationship between her mother and father (who she never met), through their letters of correspondence, which she uncovered after her mother's death.
Vernon-Smith talks about her current work in this film, made in 2025.
