She writes,
"The relationship between photography and memory has always intrigued me. One function of photography is trying to contain our experiences. However, many times these photographs become the memory instead of the stimulus of the memory. Over time these memories created from the photograph distort, become ethereal, become the shadows of what really happened.
The images I use are from my experiences and my relationships. They all connect to shape a personal history. However, much like the ambiguity of the images, my memories slip to the peripheral areas of my mind creating a past that subtly shifts and contorts."
