Drawing from my years working in engineering, I often incorporate technology, new or old, in my work, like modifying and repurposing old cameras, designing embedded devices or programming outdated computer equipment. I create new contexts for things that might otherwise be discarded, and in doing so, question the concepts of obsolescence. This in combination with the subject matter is used to explore notions of nostalgia, history, identity and anonymity, with a focus on memory and its imperfect and elusive qualities.
