Objects of My Affection
These pieces explore how histories adhere to physical forms, ossifying into material residue of experience. Objects forgotten in bedroom drawers or carefully held in museum collections become time travelers, carrying stories of their former worlds. Mining the histories embedded in these forms suggests tangible access to the past, disputing the irrevocable and closed linearity of time.
Each drawing depicts a small object, collected over my life, embedded with hair I lost after the birth of my second child in 2016.
