Looking Back

Medium: Photography

Statement: This photograph captures an old woman in the foreground, her figure softly blurred, embodying the passage of time and the stories etched in her gaze. She gazes toward the vibrant red arch that welcomes visitors to Ketchikan, a symbol of new beginnings against the backdrop of lush, misty green mountains. The ethereal quality of the scene evokes a sense of nostalgia and connection to place, inviting viewers to reflect on their own journeys and the memories that shape us. Through this image, I aim to explore the intersection of age, welcome, and the enduring beauty of nature that surrounds us.
