In my current practice, my work explores history, memory, identity and sensory perception in relation to my family and myself, within individual lives and across broad sweeps of history and culture. I interpret the evidence of the lives I explore as signals that pass through their respective cultures and time periods; these signals are continuously transformed as they reach our current perception of them. This work amounts to a type of surveillance of these signals, and an examination of the connections between them and myself as they manifest in a broad variety of work.
