Jake McMylor
Instruments of Memory
Susan Sontag stated, "[photographs are] not so much an instrument of memory as an invention or replacement". Jake McMylor's photographic practice questions what happens when photographs become eroded? Are they still a replacement for memory, or something else? Something other? Through the manipulation of found photographs, he aims to display the fading of memories over time and the erosion they can endure. Jake experiences Aphantasia, this means he has no visual memory and so photographs become an integral part of the act of remembrance and thus his need for photography to be a source of memory is displayed throughout his work.
