This series is about how memory fades. It’s based on personal experiences with my mum’s dementia, especially moments where she forgot places that were once important to us. I’ve used reflections, patterns, and parts of city scenes to show how things can look familiar but also feel distant or broken. The paintings try to capture that strange mix of holding on and letting go.
A deeply personal and metaphorically rich collection exploring the fragility of memory and the silent erosion of identity. These layered cityscapes, fractured reflections, and ghosted forms act as emotional x-rays — revealing what remains and what has slipped from reach. Inspired by lived experience with dementia, each painting serves as both structure and trace, inviting quiet contemplation of how we store, distort, and lose our inner worlds.
