digital images, 2025

Photos taken during a period of healing after a traumatic series of events.
The images are quiet reflections on post-hurricane damage to where I grew up and my own mental health.

My blurb from “i can’t get at the poem of this” for the photo Shipwrecked:

“i took this photograph during what i would consider my "rock bottom". i had experienced a personal tragedy and had to move back in with my parents across the country from where i was living. in the time that i'd been away from my hometown, a hurricane had almost completely destroyed an island that i'd grown up visiting every summer, and during that hurricane, someone's boat ended up stuck in the mangroves. my brother and sister-in-law were excited to show me this boat that had become somewhat of a new landmark after the other ones had been blown away. the boat reminded me of myself-- dropped somewhere it didn't belong due to forces outside its control.”
