The Christmas Tree Bucket: Trent Parke's Family Album

"It was there - while staring into that bright red bucket, vomiting every hour on the hour for fifteen hours straight - that I started to think how strange families, suburbia, life, vomit and, in particular, Christmas really was..." Trent Parke

So began Trent Parke's latest and much-anticipated new body of work. The Christmas Tree Bucket is humour of the blackest hue. In a dazzling display of virtuoso storytelling Parke snaps the family rituals of Christmas with the in-laws and builds a gritty gothic tale of a nightmare lurking in the suburban shadows. Operatic in its vision and darkly satirical in its style, The Christmas Tree Bucket is a photographic masterpiece destined for cult status. World premier. Trent Parke is represented by Magnum Photos, London, and Stills Gallery, Sydney
