To create these woven photographs, I photograph either a location at two different times of day from the same vantage point or a set of two family members from a similar point of view. I cut the photographs into strips, and then weave them back together. The landscapes are static objects, but they demonstrate the divergent appearances created in a single place by the light of different times of day. The portraits are a representation of family resemblance and genetic similarity. The weaving technique shows the siblings’ resemblance and individuality at once.
