Family history has been a key element throughout my practice. Women of The Same Blood is a collection of Tintype photographs alongside interviews featuring women descendant from my great grandmother Romanita, where I investigate my own identity, belonging, and concept of home in comparison to other women in my family. Included are fifteen women descended from my great grandmother through four generations who I have asked a series of questions pertaining to their experience with identity, culture, and heritage. I am interested in the varied feelings and experiences from women of the same blood. My goal is to connect the women in my family through the topic of identity, which is not often discussed, in order to preserve the spirit of my ancestors and hold on to what is being lost throughout the passage of time
