Artwork description:

A sense of home is about memories, intimacy, and the attachment one has with a place. In “A Matter of Some Moments” I am photographing families at home. Several photographs, taken over time are compiled and faded one into another creating an image where the space remains mostly the same but the families’ actions and interactions, recorded in various positions, exhibit a ghostlike appearance. Highlighting the temporality of being, the photographs become a testament to the seemingly mundane happenings that combine to comprise meaningful memories. Evoking feelings of both nostalgia and loss, the stillness in the images briefly suspends time, creating room for thought about one’s own experiences, and the familiar landscapes of our memories and places.
