Leila Green

In this project I consider my grievances and ability to tell false tales about myself and my family’s history, yet my intentions while photographing were fully indulgent in the fantasy. I insert myself not as an objective archivist but as an unreliable narrator, a voyeur, and a daughter searching for answers. At its essence, I consider my thesis a posthumous collaboration with my mother.
