“My Biggest Fear is Forgetting” is a vignette into my childhood, an image I had taken of a birthday cake when I was 11 years old. These were moments I thought were worth capturing, giving a direct insight to the lens of my childhood. Fragmented into pieces and obstructed by lace to replicate the feeling of reimagining a lost memory. I have always resonated strongly with how objects can evoke emotions, they are able to hold pockets of time, creating a way that I can preserve memories and experiences with people, so they can live on.

A series of overlayed CMYK positives, the imperfect alignment allows you to see the standalone colours through the gaps in the design. Fragmented with overlapping margins to replicate the feeling of piecing together memories and formulating thoughts and feelings of people.
