the work is inspired by damaged photographs retrieved from a domestic flood.

both water and heat had transformed the photographic surfaces, in some cases transferring them onto other surfaces and in doing so, evoked a series of imaginary responses.

using this as a starting point i used digitial technology to scan in the images and texturtes; enhancing the pictorial structure of the material with the layer command in photoshop.

my work deals with 'being' in time and memory as a rich source of emotions and motifs.
