About the Item
In the 1980s when I was in medical school there were 500,000 people with dementia in this country. Now there are nearly 6 million people and that number will triple by mid-century. There is no cure for dementia but that doesn’t mean we can’t take care of the people in a humane way. I started to make portraits of my patients with dementia and spend time with them in their homes and make a social event out of it. When they come back to see me in my clinic they have an emotional memory of our interaction.
Two years ago my father developed dementia and he said to me: “ get me out of here”, a metaphor for being trapped cognitively by his disease. Since that time I’ve been making Pt/Pd prints of perceptions, using quotes from my patients to visually shape my photos.
I aim to create a visual language in order for the viewer to experience the inner state of dementia.
