Art Statment
Memories are art..
fragile, emotional, and always shifting.
​
I photograph to hold onto what slips away:
textures, rituals, spaces, and feelings that linger quietly beneath the surface.
My work moves between personal archives, fashion, and documentary, always circling back to memory as both subject and tool.
​
Light helps me reimagine what once felt familiar.
The camera allows me to return, not just to places, but to emotions I thought I had outgrown.
​
Art, for me, isn’t limited to creation.
Sometimes it lives in how we choose, arrange, and give meaning, in how we listen, and how we hold space for stories beyond our own.
What I want to offer through my work is a place where memory can speak, where culture breathes softly, and where feeling is enough.
Whether I’m annoying my friends by taking a thousand photos, planning an exhibition, or quietly building a story in the studio,
I’m always reaching for the same thing: to keep something from fading.
​
Between past, present, and what’s yet to come, the photographs are what remain.
They are witnesses to everything: to travel, to stillness, to chaos, to care.
Even in the act of organizing, moving, or simply looking, the image holds what words cannot.
I’ve learned how to freeze a moment so that it can live forever.
​
I’ve grown, and many things have changed, but I’m still the same.
Still Norah.
Still the little one behind her camera.
