Querencia

Querencia

Querencia…..a love of that specific kind which draws us back to that place from which we have come’
Kathleen Raine

Querencia was made travelling to where my maternal family lived for three generations in Argentina and Uruguay. ‘La Querencia’ was the farm where they lived and worked in the1940s. I found a place empty of people which although I had never visited, felt familiar.

The photographs follow an internal thread in the new yet remembered landscape: a certain kind of ‘looking’, for that which is part of us but invisible.
