vignettes from a life, a mosaic of memories, and a collection of nostalgia… in photographs.
Photographs are a window into time. They act as a sort of looking glass that somehow, by some mystical force, brings the past to your feet. I take pictures as a gesture of preservation: of, almost, trapping moments I don’t want to forget. There’s something especially raw about shooting on film — it is as if it not only contains an image to be looked at, but the essence of the moment itself. Perhaps, it may also be because the verb ‘preserving’ becomes all the more sacred with the inability to look back, edit, and delete. The photographer is only left with presence and permanence.
Here’s how I see the world.
