Overview

"A personal photo essay exploring the ways the artist has dealt with, and seeks to move on from, a traumatic childhood. The project juxtaposes two image sequences to convey this process. One uses macro photography to document the different control methods used by the artist in childhood to mitigate the feelings of trauma. The other uses landscapes, photographed during a road trip from Seattle to San Diego. This contrast is intended to signify a broadening of perspective." --Abstract.
