More About Those Known To Me

Those Known To Me is a series that explores family members only known to me by stories told. With the use of digital collage and cyanotypes, I learned about these relatives. The materials used for the cyanotypes are from the area in which these relatives lived and worked. Bricks from a chimney from the street they lived to fabric that represents the mill they worked. Cardinals scattered throughout symbolize passed loved one’s, checking-in on those they left behind.

Even those they didn’t know.

Like me.
