Kathleen Campbell

In our minds, time and space exist in fleeting experience and fragments of memory. Yet photographs fix time and space, fascinating us with their ability to reconstruct detail and seducing us with their evidentiary quality. In this project, I use old glass plate negatives, combined with plant forms, to create new worlds, encompassing both nature (space) and history (time). The work is a visual fiction, woven from these broken image fragments, implying our deep interconnection with nature and the edenic state into which we cast all the pieces of lost worlds.
