You know how a memory can be intimately bound to a photograph. To the point where you’re not certain whether you remember the actual event or merely the photograph. This brings questions of perception, preservation, and fabrication of memories. Questions of subject and subjectivity.

With (re)mind | (re)place I’ve aimed to explore how narratives of remembrance take form in relation to photography; how memories are transcribed and transposed with the photographic artefact.

I asked ten friends to point me to locations that hold memories to them. Diffracting these places through the camera lens, I re-created them as model miniatures. I staged them as still-life scenographies where the participants became actors in their own memories.
