Fragments in Time

Fragments in Time

A library of photographs. Moments I kept, arranged out of order — the way memory keeps them.

The library

I collect images the way I collect evenings: slowly, and without explanation. Each frame below is a space held open for a photograph — a room, a departure, a hand on a glass, a city at the hour it softens.

The library fills one fragment at a time. Nothing here is staged for attention, and nothing arrives before it is ready.

I remember rooms the way other people remember words.

Distance is only time that has not been spent together yet.
