Pearl
I remember when I first saw a photo of my Aunt Pearl, my Grandma’s sister who passed away at 28, I thought it was me. Something about the arch in her eyebrows and the soft but assured gaze felt like I was staring at myself. I see her in my mom and my Aunt Kerri too, like we all have some piece of ourselves that we can trace back to her. Just as her essence pours from that one photograph, a blip of linear time passed over and down to myself, is this series centered around the timelessness of black and white film, juxtaposed by the fragility of life even in its most vibrant breaths.
This set of four 8x12 inch Giclee deep matte fine art prints, is in honor of that timelessness and my Auntie Pearl.
This film is expired and some graininess is likely to occur in print.
