This series of graphite drawings reflects my fascination with the intimate connections between memory, objects, and time. These small-scale graphite works depict personal objects and trinkets from my childhood in the early 2000's. Each item serves as a tangible link to specific moments, people, and emotions, acting as a kind of "time capsule" that preserves not only the object itself but also the memories and sensory details associated with it. For example, a plastic toy duck reminds me of carefree play and the textures of childhood joy, while an opal ring marks the early stirrings of identity, and a rose quartz stone shared with my sister holds the weight of connection across distance. Rendered with meticulous attention to texture, wear, and light, these drawings invite viewers to consider their own ordinary objects that hold extraordinary personal meaning.
