Santa Piterniece
Personville
In my work I explore issues of memory, dreams and time, identity and loss, presence and absence, and the relationship between the intimate and the public. In my project "Personville" I repeatedly mine my family's own photographic history, transforming images from my childhood by projecting them into settings of my home environment today. These childhood images that I project, along with the few memories I recollect - have functioned as a productive means of self-knowledge and of self-representation - as an elaborate autobiographical project. Photographs both define and remind us of our past, as well as promoting realities that have never existed; these themes are also explored in the works of my other projects.
