Ocularium
Chambers of recall exist within each person. Like the dark interior of a camera, our minds collect and store sensual information. As light touches silver coated film, so do moments in time etch themselves upon our psyches. Where a camera freezes an image, our mind captures a memory. . .
. . .However, unlike a negative whose image is stable, self-reflection reveals an ever-changing landscape. Accuracy is lost. We fall prey to distortion, imagination, and fragmentation. We are often comforted by the apparition of what was.
This work was originally created as a mixed-media installation exploring the notion of memory. The complete series of 10 images are the tangible remains of that experience.
