Yesterday’s Horizon

This work is about the land that is abandoned, but its "ghost" the idealized version of home remains an inescapable presence. Through a hazy, cold-toned atmosphere, the work illustrates the blurring of time. The subjects are not living in the "now," but in a chilled, suspended state of memory.

The women are encased in geometric containers, representing the modern architecture of isolation. These boxes signify the "compartmentalization" of grief the way we carry our lost histories within rigid, lonely boundaries even when surrounded by the vastness of what we’ve lost. We are never truly "home-free," but tethered to the spectres of places that no longer exist trapped in a longing for a future that was never allowed to happen.
