Only the fires say

In 2016, I composed a visual poem from a personal archive I had been building since 2006. I wanted to observe how these disparate images interact, like experimenting with different chemicals or reordering the lines of a poem. Although there isn’t an implied narrative as such, certain subjects (combustion, water, children, animals) and impressions (void and fullness, slow and fast) recur throughout the sequence and may echo or contradict each other, proposing an intuitive reading of an archive of experience.
