The Persona Project: A group Exhibition with Collin Harper

I’m fascinated by why we see the world the way we do — what shapes our choices, our identities, and the personas we learn to wear. Generations of family, memory, and the human experience has sculpted me, and this series explores those influences through the distorted recollections of the past and the people who formed me.

The work peels back layers of perception, searching through the fog that clouds personal and inherited memories. It’s my attempt to understand why I wear my own mask, and why so many others do too. In stitching together these fragments, I hope my search helps others begin to clear their own.
