Aphasia photography series, 2013 to 2016
Aphasia: Loss of ability to speak or understand language. Nonsensical speech. Muteness.
Sometimes even when we have words, they are inadequate, or seem inaccessible. Yet experiences that can’t be described can still have resonance, affect. They may touch, move, or infect; they may manifest a feeling, disposition or tendency. I make images to access that space where my knowledge and language fail.
