I have devoted my life to the passing of time. My work explores photography’s ability to preserve, distort, and reframe our understanding of the past. By revisiting personal archives, I examine how images function as evidence and illusion—fragments of truth that shift over time. Photography is a slippery medium. The photograph compels something in us, pulls us to look, and to pay attention. The image becomes a representation of a real moment that happened in time, frozen and removed from the original context. While a photograph attempts to hold onto memory, I search for where both images and recollections fail us. What we lose in trying to remember is found in the making. By reworking with images from my archive, I discover something new in the gaps. This tension is one I carry in my practice, working abstractly with a variety of materials, surfaces, and alternative processes. I reach for distance, a fading memory, an ephemeral gesture. I examine what lingers and what vanishes, searching for meaning in the spaces between presence and absence.
