Framing Memories I Never Had  is a 5’5” (artist’s height) encyclopedic perpetual projection machine, spinning stories out of space and time which cannot be held by narrative yet must be told. Histories become memories and myths of infinite representation, where the experiencing body as "place," takes and loses shape endlessly. We are asked to see and remember, to see through and with memory and to ask, "who is seeing; who is remembering; whose memories?" Our corporeal body is the shifting medium through which we can experience, remember and represent.
