Recently, I've been intrigued by photographs that point to different types of humanity. Sometimes it can be an archaeological dig I did in my own family album, sometimes it can be a photograph of an old or new situation I found.My excavation area is sometimes family albums, sometimes the internet, sometimes printed magazines or newspapers.Each of us has very special moments in our lives that remain in our photographic memory even after years have passed.I worked on this picture from a photo of my mother posing at a very young age, just before her marriage, with a gun and a pistol in hand.I think this is the only time in my mom's life that she's picked up a gun, and it's very special. Accordingly, my guess is that when the person in the picture looks at himself, he goes directly to other related memories of that moment. Special moments like this are a very powerful reminder.
