In the spray of Cohoes Falls, I wonder whose history and memories these remnants document.

These works are digital collages from an ongoing series of photographs I have taken along the Mohawk River, below the Cohoes Falls, documenting the curious amount of fabric remnants , fishing line, and other debris collected at the water’s edge.
