"We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time."

T. S. Eliot

 

In the spring of 2007, I began photographing my hometown. What began

as a documentary catalogue of the people I knew, turned into a journey

of self-discovery. I saw myself reflected in the people and places I held

close These images express a side of my town that I

appreciate now, more now than ever.
