Portfolio > Archives (Ongoing)

This ongoing cyanotype series constitutes dozens of overlapping archives documenting and organizing objects used by my child. Each work (or archive) has categorical parameters dictating what is included, and any object could appear in multiple archives depending on the criteria. Archives and the language used to create them are presented as a plurality of systems arising from decision-making processes. The archivist-as-artist-as-parent is situated as an agent of language (re)production.
