The work is a lot of looking back. Enveloping myself in past experiences and memories and people; gathering all that has already happened to absorb what continues. An endeavor to create something tangible out of what is so seemingly far out of reach. Addressing and readdressing a continual flow of photos, videos, and objects only to construct repeated versions of themselves through drawing, painting, crocheting, and a variety of other processes in an attempt to construct from the past, something that can exist as a reminder in the present. The pieces are objects—memorabilia of an existence. Time and a continuously repetitive process are present in both the act of creating and the means of revisiting moments again and again. The work is accumulative and while each piece is important—a moment to be paused and absorbed—each largely become symbiotic with the next; a codependency experienced within the work and within myself. The wall of objects speaks largely to an invitation of intimacy, and a collection of moments; remnants of my being/ having been.
