End Seen, a self-published monograph, draws on over a decade of personal photographic documentation. One part travelogue, one part coming of age, the story explores both the peripatetic nature of my early twenties and the loss of romantic love. Its structure is reminiscent of swells found in storms, the sea, and song, suggesting something cyclical and concrete even amidst constant flux. The thread is indiscriminate and roving, weaving through domestic spaces, public lands and backroads across North America with equal attention. There is a slow beginning, followed by a rising middle full of movement, action, promise that finally concludes in an ambiguous and shaky resolution.

          Most of the photographs were culled from everyday experiences in and around the Bay Area in Northern California and then later in Montreal, Quebec, after moving there in 2017. However, the project is not simply a diaristic account of my early adult years. Centrally, the images reflect the visual delights I have experienced coming of age. On the subject’s faces one can locate a double vision: an exuberance in the moment at hand and a premonitory weariness toward the coming future.

          The first edition of 80 was printed in June 2022.
