A field of analogue contact prints gathers elderly faces into a dense human constellation, bordered by botanical fragments, shells and seeds. The portraits appear as witnesses: tender, humorous, startled, dignified, disappearing and returning at once. Made as a physical collage, the work reflects on generation, memory and the strange continuity of life passing through bodies. It moves between family album, archive and elegy, holding age not as decline but as presence — vivid, individual and enduring.
