Daemon & Saudade

The work in Daemon & Saudade explored grief, loss, and preservation through a series of photographs, sculptural garments and items of adornment revealing both the beauty and pain of emotion. Intangible memories were given a tactile presence detailing intimate accounts and ephemeral events such as conversations and recollections, which were translated into objects. A series of dress forms displayed garments as worn sculpture that speak about wearing your narrative and comment on a daily routine of camouflage and façade and how one carries on in the face of grief and trauma. Photographs recreated the look of historical tintypes but at a scale impossible to achieve with the original technique. They recall a time of slow documentation and close inspection — a time when images were precious objects. The work captures and preserves the marks left on us by the experiences we live.
