Momento Mori

This series combines both my Mother and Father's family. As you can see, I have used cutouts, and have juxtaposed them against relating backgrounds to one another. I have manipulated these images with the intention of portraying a type of layering process. Again, making use of the dialectics of absense and presence, past, present and future.

The dark sillhouettes in the background of each image represents the void to which opens up a completely different part of my life's history that I will always be unclear about. Because of this, I will only ever be able to explore this matter to a certain degree, thus not ever able to exceed the boundaries of time.
