Dissonant Memory 1
1993-5
Photographic construction, B&W/Sepia prints
9 1/2" x 6 3/8"
In this sequence of photographic constructions, the larger B&W print might represent the original event and time. The smaller sepia print might be construed as the memory of that event. The resulting combination of the two prints represent the discordant relationship between the past and one's memory of it. Both prints are full frame, but the alignment of the smaller to the larger, and the difference between the sepia color and the B&W, show the inherent subjectivity and limitation with regard to the accuracy of memory.
