This series takes as its form from five drawers that have been pulled open. Within them are arranged fragments of carefully preserved memories: details of family photographs are transferred onto the surfaces of copper plates. The characteristic warmth of the copper lends the images a temporal filter, such that once-specific familial moments appear, within the metallic medium, both intimate and estranged. These image fragments are juxtaposed with everyday objects commonly found in domestic space, forming a structure that oscillates between private memory and material archive. Long stored within the confines of the drawer, these fragments re-enter the field of vision at the moment of being drawn out, allowing seemingly minor yet tender moments of daily life to surface once again.
