Great-Great-Grandmother

This work is part of a series in which I explore visual signs of age and time through intimate portraits of female family members.

“I am fascinated by the parallel between fading photographs and memories, and how this reflects the fleeting and temporal nature of life. Many aspects of photography blur reality and hide details; I have taken liberties to interpret and reimagine the photos, allowing for remembrance and discovery through imagination and process. ”
