Death Grip is a collection of twenty five chromogenic photographs. The series is a non linear timeline cataloging my addiction. Caught in a state of vulnerability, this body of work holds traces of my active using and my subsequent sobriety. Death Grip is not meant to evoke a negative connotation of death, but rather refer to the intensity of my grip onto reality - specifically onto the people, places, and things that keep me alive. My photographic interior memories create a transformation in to a tangible form in the world.
