My practice remains invested in the trails of feeling that ephemera leaves behind. As the image invites speculation, new histories are born from our future yearnings. Utilizing text, reenacted photographs, archival material, and found objects, perform a pressing together of the intimate and the unfamiliar. My photography and image-based installations explore the intersections of memory, identity, queer affect, migration, and Black femme sexual politics in relation to my Puerto Rican heritage and queer identity. Through still life, the formal gaze, environmental portraits, I capture the mundane yet decisive moments while also observing and engaging with my community. My work offers both introspection and observation, inviting viewers to ponder the complexities of identity and the significance of domestic spaces in shaping personal narratives.
