+Kris Graves creates portraits and landscape to preserve memory. The images’ stillness cause the viewer to acknowledge the inevitability of change, and the passage of time. Graves suspends his belief and knowledge of this change, not to document a moment or state, but rather to sustain it.
When thinking of landscapes, Graves focuses on the volatile – land that is ever changing. New developments alter the physical and mental space of the city, constantly renewing and re-imagining topography and usage.
