'An Ode to Wiston' is a 2021 photography book that was explores the interior and exterior of a house at the centre of my childhood. An accompanying poem follows the act of saying goodbye to a place.
An Ode to Wiston
Such strange emotion
I’m home, away from home
Consistent objects of familiarity spur
Overlapping, intertwined memories
Images concocted of my childhood summers
Forbidding the emptiness we leave behind
Little memories march on
I catalogue the ins and outs
All in efforts to say goodbye
Preparing for the farewell
Watching them fade away
