Notes
This body of work started when I went to write new material for what became the Passage of Remnants EP, but instead of finding the space of gloom & depression, I found something else.
This is an intensely personal body of work. I don’t think it’s my job as an artist to say so much that it spoils your interpretation of my work, but I will say that, for me, this work is about overcoming personal struggle, revisiting narratives to create new interpretations, and sensory processes.
I took the cover photo at Marathon Park in Olympia, Washington, not far from the location where I took the cover photo for Passage of Remnants, and depicts the opposite shore of the lake. A metaphor, if you will.
