Home

This body of work was generated from trips to my hometown in the winter of 2006. I found something static about home. In a front yard, or a parking lot I could find my feet stepping into my old footprints, but seeing now what I had missed then. I sought to photograph my past in the present. To grow up in a small town is to always be looking for something bigger; to be looking out to the next chapter, waiting, daydreaming. To move away from a small town leaves a longing for its innocence and its comfort. This work was an investigation into memory, how it changes and what traces trigger a relationship between then and now.
