I am experiencing a certain technologically induced loneliness. My home, Silicon Valley, is a place that is intense with the need for constant productivity, and rich with a culture that highly values work as play. Technology, combined with the pandemic, has driven us to create personal spaces for most of life’s needs, from work to play. From young students to retirees, people have taken over bedrooms, tucked into corners, set up in hallways, and claimed spots on the ends of couches. In doing so, they make these spaces work for their own particular needs and personalities. This project explores the home workspaces of business owners and middle school students, psychologists and book authors. It shows portraits of these personal spaces that are made with a mixture of need, creativity, technology, and personality, where we spend so much of our lives alone trying to connect to others.

For a portfolio review, I would bring 13x19 archival pigment prints plus a couple 24x32 archival pigment prints that help show intended detail/size. I also have a few dye sublimation aluminum prints (9"x12") of details.
