The Loss Project

The “Loss Project” is a merging of psychology and photography, an artistic exploration of the human condition, with the theme of loss. Images may include loss due to breakups; divorce; death; abandonment; neglect; separation from people, places, things, or ideas. The project is a statement that everyone, young and old, grieves something or someone. These environmental portraits, taken in areas of the subjects’ homes, which are most reflective of their personalities, honor the subjects’ feelings and emotions about their losses. In a society where we are told too quickly that “it’s time to move on” or “let go,” these images represent the grief experience—a highly individual and personal sense of void that either dissipates or lingers over time.
