The subject of my photographs is my own family: my parents and retarded brother. I have been photographing them continuously from 1968 to the present. The photographs avoid easy interpretation. Capturing the paradoxes and mysteries of my family’s dynamics, they are also projections of my own fluctuating feelings toward my family: a balance between light and dark, closeness and alienation.
