invisible threads

2018 - 2021

Invisible Threads speaks to connections and identity found through our family stories and childhood memories.  The blending of past and present that helps us see we’re part of an ongoing narrative. Through these images I am able to piece together and remember the stories  my mother and grandmother told me when I was young and to continue the family narrative with my own daughter.  Photos from my mother’s bedside table, a fan belonging to a great grandmother, matching wedding bands, a forgotten portrait of a young girl.  With the passage of time, the memories are handed down and we become the story tellers.

The prints in this collection have all been hand printed using the  19th century historic process, platinum palladium.  I feel this type of printing adds  to the message of history, story telling and time passing.
