Maiden
Maiden explores the memories and connections through the lens of family archives and self-portraits, weaving together past and present. This project is a reflection on the relationships between a mother and daughter(s) - how different artefacts and shared experiences pass through generations. Through a combination of archival and contemporary portraits I discover my German ancestry through my mother’s maternal line hence the name Maiden aka ‘Mädchen’. I aim to bridge the past and present to co-exist within a cohesive narrative.The women in my family - grandmothers, mothers, and sisters - are central to this exploration. Their strength, vulnerability, and resilience echo through generations. Through the exploration of the past, I uncover and come to understand the parallels of my present and acknowledge the threads that bind us across time.
