Constructing A Past

  • Photographer
    Diana Salomon, United States
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

Constructing a Past examines how absence in the family archive shapes memory and identity. Through self-portraiture, archival imagery, and installation, I navigate inherited silences and construct new visual narratives. By stepping into images once hidden, I confront what it means to belong to a history I was never fully given, using photography to transform loss into visibility and reimagine the ties that link past and present.
