My last living grandparent passed away in February 2022. While my grandfather lived a long and full life, the finality of losing all my grandparents has been difficult to reconcile. During this time, I found solace through documenting my grandparents' belongings and transforming the digital images into Polaroid emulsion lifts. The fragile nature of this process reflects the impermanence of memory while referencing the many loose Polaroids that make up our family albums, allowing me to process grief and preserve familial histories.
