I was taught the creation story from Genesis as a child, and I have not stopped thinking about Eve ever since. I make pictures informed by identity and established on a matriarchal memory; I think everything I make comes back to Her. Working across a range of photographic processes, I use my image-making to confront concepts of feminine history, the body, and nature’s influence through self-portraits, images of family, and process-based landscapes.
