Stalgia

Inspiration is fleeting, unpredictable, and often unprompted which can make it difficult to capture- like catching fireflies. For me, it manifests in liminal, fleeting moments. As a child, I imagined gathering memories, scenes, and objects into jars, hoping I could reopen the jars and feel the scene again, as if it were a scent. This series is an attempt to jar moments of inspiration for me, hoping I and others can feel the scene as we unscrew the top and release it.
