VERSO : Towards | Reverse

{ VERSO }
TOWARDS | REVERSE
En Italiano: verso {ver-soh} – to move towards
In English: verso {vur-soh} – reverse; having been turned


The passing of time makes it possible for us to understand change. 
All memory exists only within time - suspended between different contexts, time frames and locations. 
A memory is changed by the moment in which you recall it, taking it from the past into the present. 
Due to this lapse, memories are able to expand in meaning as we continue to grow. 
This causes memories to shift - fading or becoming clear, merging or fracturing, gaining or losing significance with the passage of time. 
This convergence invites a renewed space in which to exist, rest and move with the fluctuation of our experiences.

This body of work is a fusion of various moments I had throughout Italy in January 2011. 
Each piece contains multiple images, shot individually but woven together to create a new image. 
This is my exploration of the tensions and intricacies of memory through my own understanding of how fickle yet specific it is.

Please enjoy what I have seen. These are now yours to remember.
