My work engages with the unseen architectures of history and the quiet manipulations embedded in its preservation. I gather materials from personal, institutional, and alternative collections, seeking out what is kept and how. By enlarging the backs of archival photographs, I bring to surface the marks, inscriptions, and stains that exemplify that a hand once physically held an image — passed it from one person to another, used it to tell a story, to exchange information, to articulate the fact that something, someone, lived.
In obscuring the photographed subject, I invite viewers to reconsider what is made visible or valuable in the realm of record-keeping. This inversion of focus draws attention to the margins, where evidence of human interference, subjectivity, and fantasy emerges. These peripheral details reveal how every document is a product not only of what it shows, but also of what it hides.
