Title: Fates of Familiarity
Year: 2025
Medium: Digital collage from found imagery and texts

This piece was created in 2025 by photographing and digitally manipulating found images and fragments of text sourced from a variety of materials. It reflects on the feeling of being bound to a working‑class identity, exploring how personal histories and cultural symbols can feel both protective and confining. The layered elements—drawn from different eras and contexts—merge into a single moment of tension, memory, and self‑reflection.
