To open my mother’s bedside drawer is to follow the rabbit down into a tunnel of home videos played back in my mind, of daydreams about who she might be today, of who we might be together. Sifting through what she left behind—the small watch that she wore daily, the bits of lace tatting she never finished—is never easy.

Setsuna is a small catalog of these findings from a life past, an attempt to capture a brief moment of time and render it more permanent. The printing of this paper is fashioned after the cyanotype, a process that uses the sun’s rays to convert the shadow of an object into a Prussian Blue image, a photogram of a moment soon to pass.
