As Above, So Below is a series about pairs and comparisons. When I go for a walk with my half frame camera I contemplate direction, and how I got to be where I am. I wonder how my life would be different if I hadn’t moved away from the ocean, or if I hadn’t taken a full time job. I compare. I imagine another version of my life and myself and compare it to who I am now.
I find myself constantly comparing and often to my detriment, so this series helps me freely explore the realm of comparison without self judgement. Images full of friends compared against empty chairs remind me of my own thoughts about my lovely and deep group of friends, and how a different life might not include them. A newspaper and swing make me imagine a life where perhaps I became a parent, compared to my child free existence.
There is an abundant possibility of outcomes.
