Water nourishes and gives life to all forms, but blackwater suggests an element of foreboding danger.
This small series of works explore the fragility of youth and the precipice of teen-hood. Piecing together fragments of memories from childhood and observing as my own children navigate through their own, the images draw on themes of sanctity and transformation. They portray an angelic, dreamlike figure bathing in a pool of black water, glowing with flecks of fiery light, a hint to signs of the tempestuous hormone-driven world they will soon enter.
The series are digital double exposures, made up of an above water portrait which is then layered with multiple images taken below the surface, from within the same body of water.
