This series presents a physical archive of fire-damaged objects that I have collected, most of them gifted to me by the individuals I photographed at their burnt homes. I chose to bring this collection of distorted, yet familiar, objects into a still life studio to photograph forensically with no visible background. My intention is for these images to function as both evidence and metaphor.
As we start to experience the heat of the world’s climate emergency right here and right now, these objects pose the question of how archaeologists of the future might struggle to understand the self-destructive behavior that is threatening our life and future on this planet.
A crucial part of this collection is a set of Nikon cameras from the home of Terry Murphy, a collector whose home in Colorado was one of the 1,080 homes destroyed by the Marshall Fire on the last day of 2021. These cameras present an extreme irony; items that were designed to record the world on film have instead come to bear the marks of climate change in their physically incinerated materiality.
