About the Exhibition

Exploring the intersections between atmosphere and memory, this series of work, Sisters Series, focuses on photography as a tangible piece of nostalgia.

The images are an opportunity to explore your own memories and reframe them within the boundaries of the alien-like and haunting landscape of the English coast. The bleak images on expired film are also an introspective peek into my own early memories of photography. An unidentified woman is a solo wanderer inside trying to capture her own memories with a phone. Therefore, the images also juxtapose the idea of memory creation with digital media.
