Town

Town is a project I started in 2012; I make images in my home town of Bowmanville by re-visiting places that held significance to me as an adolescent. Locations range from the corner stores where I stood outside to ask adults to buy me cigarettes and the Post Office where my friends and I would skateboard, to the old tire plant where we would hold bush parties. These are the places that had some part in shaping my experience growing up, and figuring myself out. What a time, what a place – Towns can be.

The main focus of the work is to examine the triangular relationship between memory, spaces and quotidian movement.
