ECHOES

Born into an exceptionally large family, life for Harold was once endless family gatherings and shared work to accomplish whatever the season dictated.  Today, abandoned homesteads and family mementos all carry the echoes of his personal history.  Is it true that we gather echoes as we go through life, that we are beings of layered personal history? 

These photographs are part of a larger project that represents a walk through family history, quietly exposing the emptiness and solitude of beings the last of a large and active prairie family.
