I project the abandoned memories of strangers onto myself in an attempt to connect with their subject matter through self portraiture. By exploring these pasts, I find myself searching for belonging through an associated nostalgia. Slide film becomes significant to my photographic process due to its vicarious nature. Being that the exposed film once existed in the same space as these scenes, it carries residual energy from those moments. This body of work serves as the entanglement of time and energies that are compelled to meet one another as they maneuver through space.
