Photo Series: Tracing Echoes

I often create personal photo narratives that amplify my angst for moments in our historic past and my need to shed light through reflection and acknowledgement. I combine images from the past and the present, using those found in the public domain like Eadweard Muybridge and others layered with my own photographs taken or from my family archive. I do not intend to offer more ubiquitous images of time travel, but to relay my personal goal of challenging us all to resist the pull forward or back and withstand the test of the present. Each image becomes a kind of totem built from layers of history reincarnated anew. And as these newly created images harken back to their historic counterparts, they symbolize more than just the passage of time. They offer a renewed appreciation for where we are today, how far we have come, and hope for the future.
