When George Eastman created the Kodak Camera in 1888, he made a cumbersome and complicated process easy to use and accessible to nearly everyone. Since then, the world has been oversaturated with trillions of images. Photographs became not only accessible, but expendable. Within the age of digital, where the discarding of an image is as simple as a push of a button, what makes one image more expendable than another? Why are some memories more important than others? By taking images of mundane occurrences and recreating them, I am not only putting focus on the snapshot and that of the “everyday” image; but also, by recreating them in a non-photographic, painterly manner, I am forcing the viewer to question which is more important, the memory itself or the documentation of that memory?
