TITLE: Glimpse

"Glimpse" captures a fleeting moment of childhood through frosted glass, highlighting the delicate balance between visibility and obscurity. In this evocative black and white photograph, the figures of Sienna and Amara are artfully veiled, their hands pressed against the pane as if to reach beyond the physical barrier that separates them from the viewer. This image invites us to peer deeper, encouraging a dialogue between what is seen and unseen. The use of frosted glass serves both as a literal and metaphorical filter, obscuring details while emphasizing the universal emotions of longing and connection. This photograph not only showcases the innocence and curiosity of youth but also reflects on the transient nature of memories, captured here in a timeless, poignant frame.

Through my art, I transform ephemeral moments into enduring narratives, bridging the fleeting and the tangible. Rooted in the exploration of memory and identity, my practice revolves around documenting my family’s life and creating a tangible archive from our shared experiences. This serves to preserve our moments and also constructs a physical form of proof from the non-physical essence of memory. In capturing these images, I thread the delicate balance between visibility and obscurity, uncovering the layers of our familial bonds and the complexities hidden within. I aim to investigate how these visual artifacts impact our sense of self and identity, reflecting on the roles that shape us and the historical voids that define us.
