The Landscape of Memory #3
The Landscape of Memory
“A man sets out to draw the world.
As the years go by, he peoples a space with images of provinces,
kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms,
instruments, stars, horses, and individuals.
A short time before he dies,
he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines
traces the lineaments of his own face.”
Jorge Luis Borges, The Aleph and Other Stories
This series of work combines my film-based images with digital scans. The work explores the desire to recall the past. Memory is vague, unreliable, often clouded by dreams and visions. I have attempted to capture these qualities of reminiscence in my images.
