Three a Family

 

Three, a Family, is an ongoing exploration with digital collage and animation techniques using old family albums and photos I made during the refurbishing of our home; a reflection on the notions of home and how we strive to shape it; the images are a precursor, acting as a daydream of the future home, as my family of three, started to live together again, after almost ten years of moving around; the pandemic allowed us to question these growing associations and disassociations of the dynamics of living together in a nuclear family.

 

Like the hands of a clock, each one ticking to a different rhythm, one clock stops defining the time for the three of us. Each day as the walls and corners are realigned to ceiling and doors, another cycle is set in motion, suggesting an opportunity to rebuild over that which remains after erosion; the primal self, the family, the home.
