A Place We Once Were

Fuji Superia 400, 35mm film
This work is a nostalgic moment in time, in which life continues onward. with this work I wanted to encapsulate a longing for moments that have passed, a personal mini series I did regarding my family while utilizing the location we were in where my grandparents used to live. The embrace of the past or a moment we long for that we can only visit in a memory, the precious moment in time with loved ones in a place we used to play as children while my grandparents sat on the park bench or picked us grandkids up from school and walk around together. I wanted to capture the tender fleeting moment. The bittersweet days we long for and often recall.
