“I’m breaking with old patterns and moving forward with my life”*

2025 was a year I revisited love. Loving myself, parental love, loving my siblings, friends, partners, failed relationships, hearts expanding, hearts broken, expanding, broken, expanding, expanding. 

At age 35, I’m revisiting photography, reproduction. This is a photograph I took of a photograph my father took when I was a newborn in my mother’s arms. The original image is not blurry. I decided to print this image as my first-ever editioned photograph, as an attempt to share the feeling of revisiting love, its repetition, its shared effort. I chose an archival paper that feels good to touch.
