 The Hiraeth Records is considering the notion of place. That is, how the very notion of memory of places survives and lives on through distance — physical and temporal — and through amnesia. It blends together photography and computer generated imagery to construct the prototype for an endless house of memory, a private archive of lost and surrendered places: rooms where I lived in childhood or in adult age and I vacated, rooms that are either lost to time or have become inaccessible. The remembered house it depicts is a projection of a faulty memory and, essentially, a fantastic rendition of real places. As such, the records stand as an emotional memento of temporal and spatial displacement.

The series The Hiraeth Records was originally commissioned for exhibition by Ar.Co in Lisbon.
