Family Frames
2024–
"Family Frames" is a deeply personal exploration of loss, fragmentation, and the passage of time. Using childhood photographs from my own family I install large-scale prints—each about two feet long—in public spaces across San Francisco. Left exposed to the elements these images are gradually altered by weather, graffiti, and unplanned interactions by people passing by.
As the photographs fade, tear, or become layered with the marks of the city, they mirror the dysfunction and disintegration that shaped my own family experience. Watching them change over time is both painful and cathartic—a way of confronting the instability of memory and the erosion of connection. These evolving pieces speak not only to my personal story, but to the universal way time leaves its trace on all of us—on families, on cities, and on the perspectives we hold of who we once were.
All images from this series are produced in numbered, limited editions.
