Recently my grandmother passed away and a mentor of mine commented that the death of a grandparent can feel as though a part of your childhood has died. This notion really affected me and caused me to reflect on how I may perceive the world differently as I grow up and how my experience shapes my worldview.

My intent through this project is to capture a  person, place, or thing and examine how I remember it as a child versus how I observe it now as an adult. This process allowed me to demonstrate how I have adopted different perspectives as I age. I explored these perspectives digitally with an emphasis on using Photoshop to enhance the differences in perspective from a child’s eyes to an adult’s reflection.

Through my pictures, I am asking viewers to examine the biases we take on as we age, in particular how the things that we view as so simple and available as a child become enveloped in complexity and shaped by our personal journey as we age. The things that we once cherished transform through how we receive and interpret them over time. We see distinct nuances, have completely different emotional responses, and choose to focus on or expand our view based on what we have our perceptions and experiences.
