Family Time

Family Time (title subject to change)

Family Time is an ongoing series begun in 2019. Through the lens of a camera, the series observes the relationship between myself and the paternal side of my family.

What started as an observation of familial interaction, as a means to better connect, has bared witness to the last few years of my grandfather’s life and eventual passing in January of 2025. The project now focuses on our post-grief stage as a family, as we support our grandmother and focus on our interpersonal relationships with one another. Set against the changing seasons of the New Hampshire landscape, Family Time spotlights my grandparents’ influence in our relationship to land, tradition, and legacy.
