Here Over There is a photographic series that began on the island of Chiloe, Chile, on December 23, 2002 and continues to this date. I photograph the beds I sleep on during my travels with consistent parameters—the image is taken as soon as I awake, on the first morning of my stay, with the available light, with a hand held camera, and from the same point of view. The idea of my hotel beds came from the thought that I might never sleep in this bed again, and most likely I will never even remember this intimate moment of full surrendering. Impermanency has become my companion, and memory a fugitive muse. I hold, suspend and elongate an instant. I am collecting the beds to see in a few years, the patterns of sameness and of difference. The series currently consists of over 50 images, and includes locations such as Taipei, Paris, Reykjavik, Mexico DF, Puebla, Portland, New York, San Pedro de Atacama, and Santiago de Chile.
