It’s Just a Bunch of Hocus Pocus is a series of digital pinhole photographs that seek to address real life experiences of the paranormal. This work also serves to shed light on the fine line between fact and fiction when it comes to documenting the paranormal with cameras. Memories and experiences linger in our minds, shaping our point of view and perception much in the same way that a ghost can haunt a home. Starting with her own experiences with the paranormal, the artist hopes to engage the viewer by drawing connections between Victorian spirit photography, Membrane Theory, and the human desire to understand death and to connect with those who have crossed into the unknown. The goal of this body of work is to allow the viewer to work through this territory and to explore our need to have tangible proof of the paranormal, usually in the form of photographic evidence.
