Commentary: In this series, titled Ghost Portraits, an individual, long deceased, is represented through a collection of “saved” items – old photographs, lock of hair, a hymnal, and so forth. As a rule the life imagined was clearly a difficult one. Often mirrors are set inside the piece to nudge the viewers into seeing themselves in the life of others – it's how empathy is nurtured. Often old worn out shoes, as a metaphor for a tough life lived, are included. These works are subtitled: Lost Soles.
Medium: Victorian frame surrounding a bracelet of deceased loved one's hair, old black mirror with photo of an African American woman and her small hymnal
