The Past is a Map
Focusing primarily on still photography, with some elements of the moving image. My primary medium is analogue photography, with a particular focus on slide film and the performance of projection. My work explores the relationship between memory, place and grief. Attempting to connect to my late father, I aim to construct a knowing of him, through the objects and places he once knew. I attempt to decode the language of these objects and places, constructing a narrative that reflects my understanding of a person who I never met. Returning to these places we knew apart, to bridge the gap of absence that exists between us. Through the projection of slides, I attempt to map the landscape of my grief and trust where it leads me. Navigating the past through archival family material, trying to recollect something that never occurred. I can attempt to reinsert myself into the family life we could have had but knowing that it could only ever be a nearness of him.
