Description

Transition, 2017-2018
Twenty-five digital photographs

My artwork is a direct portal into my personal life, and these photos document my daily experiences. I compose my photographs in a way to offer the viewer a perspective as if they were experiencing my life by my side. This series was inspired by my practice of recording a daily one-second video, documenting the beauty in the ordinary moments in my life. Many of these photographs include family and friends, and record my raw journey after experiencing the loss of my father. Over the past year, my life has transitioned in so many ways, including my role in the nuclear family that we once were. This series has helped me grieve and find him in the ordinary things, but the use of black and white represents a missing piece that I always feel. I have experienced many challenging “firsts” this year, but I believe that I have transitioned into a more thoughtful, independent, generous and stronger woman because of my experiences. All photos were taken with a Nikon D3000, which was a gift from my parent’s for my eighth grade graduation. All photos were edited using Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
