THANKS DAD

In an effort to examine my own childhood initiation rituals, I returned after 35 years to two locations from my youth.

Against the backdrop of rural car culture and the transformative final days of childhood innocence, I reflect on power, vulnerability and generational expectations.

Themes of defiance, indulgent force and uncertainty appeared as I retraced the stirring moments of early development.

Memories became pictures alongside an emerging new identity.
