Faced with gaps in memory, the total loss of memories and the inevitability of human error, the foundations for personal identity become bare and inconsistent.

Through the use of storytelling and the influence of universal myth and folklore, I am constructing of my own narrative. The creation of these stories become the root system of memories. I align myself with characters and archetypes and through the telling of these stories I adopt personalities and manifest identities.
