projects
Here are three beginning test shots from my in progress cyanotype series regarding ocean garbage.
This project was at first intended to be an extension of another project, however through a series of terrible events It has transformed into another one. The recent passing of my grandmother has given me thoughts about time. This is, I think, a natural reaction to the passing of a loved one. The realization that our seemingly infinite lives in a particular moment are really not, is a concept that many do not like to burden themselves with. I have tried with the images I have made as a result of these thoughts, to pictorialize the concept “threads of time” id est, the idea of multiple realities, possibilities, outcomes, et cetera. My grandmothers passing was not a timed one, despite her being very ill and even in the hospital, her death was a freak accident. It is as if the thread her life had been following, somehow crossed with another, there was a mix-up and this new thread she had begun to follow lead her towards demise. It is curious, what is it the dictates these threads. These images are meant to be, not only a homage to my grandmother, but also to the idea that these threads are all around us.
This project was influenced by the works of Jerry Uelsmann, and Roger Ballen.
