Projects I'm Working On

Silent Echoes
This is a series of photographs on the subject of women's lives. I cared for my elderly father for seven years, and realized just how invisible that work was to the world. When he died, it seemed as if all the effort I put into his care and well-being was just washed away. I got to thinking about how undocumented and unrecognized women's lives have been; how much they have contributed and continue to contribute to humanity. In this body of work I pay tribute to them.
