Curated by: Nina Allen, Imani Haynes, and Brian Rohrbaugh

“Letters To My Former Selves,” addresses personal histories and the changing facets of identity. In this series, I sent light sensitive paper in USPS envelopes to all ten of my former addresses throughout the United States. After the paper was returned to me, I developed it using traditional darkroom methods. The resulting images are traces of the light and conditions the paper was exposed to in envelope along its travels. All of the pages were sent using identical envelopes, but had varying degrees of light leaks, exposure to rain, etc. leading to a very diverse series of images."
