AT HOME
2021-2023

At Home is a body of self-portraits made in the house I grew up in. The work explores how emotional, familial, and intergenerational traces pass through the body, the image, and the home.

​

Made entirely in-camera through long exposure, the images allow recognisable form to dissolve, overlap, and reform. The body becomes less a fixed subject than a site in flux: a place where gestures, memories, impulses, and inherited presences accumulate within a single frame.

​

As a house is shaped by those who inhabit it, the body is also shaped by what has passed through it. In these images, home and body begin to mirror one another, functioning as both container and witness.

The work draws on clothing, objects, family photographs, and inherited materials from the house, allowing different emotional and temporal presences to surface.

Rather than acting as straightforward self-portraiture, At Home attempts to make visible the layered states that live within and around the body: traces of self, family, memory, and atmosphere held in one place over time.
