Portfolio > On the Edge of Lost

We are all a collection of memories. What happens to our sense of identity if the ability to recall our own history fades? Without personal narrative do we become lost to ourselves, shadows of our own pasts? This body of work is an exploration of identity as it relates to memory loss and dementia. It is an investigation of communication and recollection, the habits and hopes that remain as memory fades away.
