Overview
The work attempts to piece the past together from a family’s perspective. As I tried to collect and compile these old photographs scattered in various albums, it was no longer important if I existed in the photos or not. What I remarked upon was the familiar figures that I continued to spot during the process and how they merge with new and similar experiences. The circular structure of old and new together forms a family history that is at once vague and clear to see.
