interiors 1983-1998 color photographs
I combine and re-visualize photographic imagery, exploring its relationship with memory. I am particularly interested in how personal and collective memory affect the reading of photographs. Working with slide projections, I create ephemeral installations to be photographed that combine my family snapshots, and historical/cultural imagery.
In the interior photographs, empty rooms are filled with "projections" replaying psychological and emotional events.
