Artist Statement
Taking the non-physical format of a website, Oncetoforever is a personal essay. The project, at its core, is an attempt to reflect and document the people I have met, the places I have been, and the experiences that, at one point or another, may have been important to me. The project is an attempt to communicate a fragmented narrative that is abstracted by the presence of technology and the unreliability of memory.
Oncetoforever combines original images with found digital artifacts that signify my cultural and personal past.
