Standstill
For the past year, I have documented my Grandparents house. My Grandad passed away in 2012. My Nana was diagnosed with Dementia, and after some time, moved into a nursing home in 2019. I have incorporated still-life imagery, personal belongings and family photos into the work. The project served as a catharsis for the residual grief from the death of my grandfather. And the question of can we grieve for the living? As my grandmother continuously battles with her memory. This project also allowed me to discover and recollect memories. And if my Nana’s disease has taught me anything, it is just how sacred those memories of home are. A house can be many things. A home is special
