DESCRIPTION

Mamí whispered these images in my dream.  Asking to remember the matter we are suspended in.  Process becomes mediation and transforms with gestures that travel through time.

The distillation of shared memories between mother and child decades apart printed on layers of silk organza using an antiquarian photographic process from 1842.

Mamí susurró estas imágenes en mi sueño.  Pidiéndome que recuerde la materia en la que estamos suspendidos.  El proceso se convierte en mediación y se transforma con gestos que viajan a través del tiempo.  La destilación de recuerdos compartidos entre madre y hija con décadas de diferencia impresos en capas de organza de seda utilizando un proceso fotográfico anticuario de 1842.
