Garland’s enticing homes – alive with pastel hues and skewed perspectives – are inspired by photographs taken around her New York neighbourhood. Anything worth having hurts a little borrows its title from a line in The Neon Demon (2016). References to film, TV and music in Garland’s titles hint at the limitless stories hovering just beyond the edge of her canvases. With no figures present, narrative possibilities are endless. A newspaper waits on the doorstep, but for who? Flowers bloom below the window, but who planted them?
