Statement from the artist:
"Drawing upon narratives of metamorphosis and manifestations of the unknown, this body of work documents a world existing just outside the realm of sight. In this world, the past exists in the present and the residue of memory haunts newly occupied spaces. As objects waver between states of being, layers of our unseen world are revealed. This work, Like the delayed rays of star, harnesses the potent energy of family photographs to manifest a visible expression of memory and loss."
