Work from Void Diaries.
“The void diaries series was produced over the course of one year by photographing the space just beyond my second floor bedroom window. Made with a simple amateur point and shoot camera, the screen becomes a scrim and the point of focus fluctuates between the screen and the landscape. These images were made over the course of my last year in Memphis, during torrential downpours, days when it was impossible to work outside. The result is a diaristic account of the seasons, a melancholy meditation on place.” – Martina Shenal
