My current direction is in fine art conceptual
photography. I am transitioning
between color and black and white, but have a love for both and what each of
them has to offer. I have been
photographing my Grandmother and her interior life for the past couple of
years. I felt this necessity to
preserve her and her possessions.
I was interested in how she was going to be gone someday and all that
would be left would be her things.
There is also a permanence that is lacking, and I wanted to show that in
my photographs. Nothing is
permanent.
This series, Fragile
Chaos, symbolizes life, death, fragility, vulnerability, and how the
present becomes the past. I see Life
and death as intertwined and connected.
I didn’t want to portray death in a dark way. Instead, I wanted to elevate it and make it beautiful. I wanted to have the subject matter to
be precious and delicate while portraying this concept. Coming from a religious background, I
don’t see death despairingly. Most
of my work has a little hint of these things in the photographs.
