HOME
In early 2013 my mother chose to leave our family and home in the suburbs in order to start a new life for herself. With my photographs, I have been exploring this unexpected and jolting journey of watching my mother, who I once was very close with, turn into someone I could hardly recognize. Since there are many different sides to which I, my mother, and my family are experiencing, I chose to come at this project from multiple angles by photographing not only the individuals but also the spaces which reflect back upon us.
I chose to document the state in which my family's house is presently in (while being on the housing market) because in an interesting way, the house has followed suit with the family dynamics; empty, bare, and with voids.
