“Under the watchful eyes of my children—a newborn son and a seven-year-old daughter—I began capturing moments within the framework of our home. Returning to New Brunswick during the extreme moment of the pandemic, I rediscovered the landscapes, sounds, and language of my own childhood, seen anew through my children’s eyes. These photographs are an exploration of connection, growth, and the tender intersections of past and present.”Collection
