mirrored reflection lit onto a surface, held in points to deny the true passage of time and decay
An attempt at a forever memory as materialized

Suburb Study is a photographic series I created while processing my relocation to a normatively surreal American suburb and my father’s death. Colonial Hills is a middle-class suburb that exists outside of Columbus, Ohio.
I bought several disposable cameras and photographed the neighborhood. I lived
there for a year renting a home with my mother and my son from 2017-2018. The images are the beginning of the site-specific series, Colonial Hills, 2017-2021. The series also includes a textbook audit project with 4th-grade students and a dialogical project with Minus Plato.
