Mami (Uncle’s Wife)
Artist Statement
In “Mami” (Uncle’s Wife) I am directly altering the original silver gelatin prints, thus creating a one-of-a kind photographic image.
This body of work embodies my intention to create for the future what our forebears made for us. I treasure my archives of old family photographs and I want to create lasting one-of-a kind photographic prints that will compel future viewers to hold, examine, and cherish them.
