"The place is South Africa. It is home to my family it is where I was raised ... I left. I left for professional reasons, to pursue picture-making in the capital of photography, New York City. I have been living outside of South Africa for eleven years now, but have returned annually to make pictures there over the past five years ... The attempts to represent the complexity of South Africa by photographing its diverse constituents seemed too obvious an approach ... I began to photograph my family and stayed with that subject, occasionally including the lives of close friends ... The text that accompanies some of the images in the book is drawn from excerpts from my own and extended family's letters ... In this book, the three specific locales I explore are: home interiors, gardens, and open landscape. Within each milieu are intersecting images and actions that both remind me of my personal story and act as a wider lens on how we, as a group, have projected our culture and history upon the land and its structures"--From introduction.
