A new collaboaration with set & costume designer Poppy Whitehorn, his photo series Talisman situates young adults in Post-Thatcher British homes next to symbols of youth - such as sports equipment and instruments - representing those hobbies often adopted at a young age and shed as one grows into adulthood. It is up to interpretation whether the message of this visual language is the beauty of maintaining one's child-like wonder and naivete, or the disempowerment and despondence of dependent young adults in a time of rampant disenfranchisement.

Talisman is named in reference to this particularly transitional stage of life when young adults are given crucial guidance and direction from certain key individuals; In a sense of reverse anthropomorphism, the subjects in the series become talismans representing an otherworldly peer support network in Deedigan's own life.
