Notes:
This series of photographs is compiled from a range of work over the last eight years. Many of the peripheral locations that I photograph often result from pedestrian explorations of urban space. These investigations identify a number of concerns including social histories, ephemera, the nature of collective memory and the way we order our environment. As I wander through all of these places, I also try to reveal the uncanny that exists within the everyday and draw attention to these fragile and intimate undertones. In a range of ways these images express a certain kind of longing for both the past and the future.
The earliest memories I have of growing up on the Muskeg Lake Cree Nation in central Saskatchewan are of my childhood home, a blue and white trailer that sat in a farmyard, steps away from both my grandmother’s home and the home that my father grew up in. Though I have few vivid memories of life during that time, as my family moved from the trailer into a log house when I was four, I remember the essence of the place, the layout and décor, the smells and colours. I remember looking out the picture window at the yard, the late 1970’s/early 1980’s colour pallet, the floor to ceiling mirrors, green shag carpet, relatives coming over for visits, cousins and birthday parties, the eight-track player.
