HANNAH ALTMAN

By engaging with imagery over the last five years, my mother and I have been building Indoor Voices around intergenerational womanhood, matrilineal responsibility, and the symbolism in quiet intimacy. The work is a collaborative discourse of familial and female oriented complexities that makes a testimony to our lineage and experiences as Jewish women. The images explore the process of making by women responsible for their own modes of storytelling. Within every image, and in the relationships between images throughout the series, there are structures and collapses, strengths and ruins, truth and fiction.  With this constant assembling and revising, our memory builds in front of us as we photograph it.
