As the work has evolved, so has his approach to the spaces it’s shown in. “For me, any time I get into an exhibition space it’s, like, now we have this opportunity to do something, let’s do something different,” Teeling says. “I’m thinking less about the obvious photography thing, because I’ve got ideas coming out the wazoo. It’s an installation akin to what I did in the, which was a toilet installation. I’ve created a bedroom, but there’s no bed there.
That became the exhibition title. “It’s a reference to the biblical references of Tate & Lyle,” Teeling says. “They put a reference to Samson’s riddle on the golden-syrup can, a dead lion with bees coming out from the carcass. They recently redesigned it into blandness. So I was just thinking about that strength, the people who came before us, the lasting legacy of that. There is a sweetness to it, a real beauty to it. It came from this strength of community.
