VOLUMES (2018-ONgoing)

I became obsessed with recording memories and musings in Moleskine Pocket journals. I am currently at 106 volumes, filled up within a 6 year period. I intend to continue this project until the end of my life.

Over time, this practice began to feel like collecting my own mental data. Thoughts and feelings are given a number, dated, and stored in a special location. My disorganized mind pours itself into this structure, and discovers freedom within the limited & repetitive form. When reading old journals, I take on the role of a scientist, as I observe each thought, and it’s unique characteristics.

Since the world is inevitably shifting into a completely digitized information age, there is an ache to capture every moment through the analog format. Despite all efforts, no physical medium can completely immortalize my human experience.
