ROOTS: Photography, Memory, Archive

ROOTS grew out of my artistic practice - a space where photography, memory, and personal history meet. Through years of working with archival images, self-portraiture, and tactile processes like embroidery and cyanotype, I began to see how photographs hold more than visual stories — they carry emotion, connection, and deep ancestral threads.

ROOTS is where this work becomes shared. It’s a series of workshops, retreats, and one-on-one sessions where you can explore your own story through images, create meaningful personal archives, and reconnect with your roots.
