“nostalgia” was shot in the village where my grandmother lived; my favorite place growing up. After many years of being away, the image of this home, which I abandoned and lost, transformed in my mind. “Home” became an abstract, veiled version of itself. The landscape, the pastures, each hill, and fruit tree came to collectively and metonymically represent the idea of home. My own artistic intervention through this project is yet another modality through which this lost home is both transformed and simultaneously re-constructed. The sheet of ink-jet print paper that appears in the photographs, is a form of mediation or transduction of my memory, longing, and nostalgia for the place I constructed in my mind. For the first time, I placed my body in the photographs and, by doing so, I aim to be more explicit in showing the self-reflection and the intimate aspect of my visual explorations.
