Barnwell - July 2025

These photographs were taken on a trip through my father’s hometown. This work explores themes of familial lineage, change, and the space between what has been and what could be.

The marshy landscape is a site of connection- between generations, between the physical earth, and our spiritual existence. Water becomes a reflection of our own human experience as well as a door into our unspoken truths.

This project is a meditation of my own relationship with my father, his relationship with his origins, and the way these histories connect. Grappling with the passage of time, his aging, my own awareness of impermanence, and the limited time we have together.

With this work I ask: How do we connect across space? How might we express what feels unsayable? And how might we show up for one another before this is all over?
