My work involves myself and members of my family. There is often a gap between the people I have perceived and known for a long time and the people I come to know anew through the process of making the work. I examine this discrepancy persistently and closely.This persistence sometimes brings buried memories back to the surface, disrupting the quiet flow of everyday life and creating discomfort. Yet some moments need to be courageously brought into view and confronted directly. Through this process, we come to know one another more genuinely, while tracing the origins of the identities and emotions that have been internalized over time.
