This work is from Diptaa's Your Memories series. She explains: “With my Your Memories series I first go back to the place of someone’s memories to take photographs of what has disappeared. This memory place can be a former address, a childhood playground, a bench, or a table at a restaurant: anything and anywhere as long as it is inhabited by memories. In a second step, these photographs are adorned with drawings, speaking about our ability to fill up what has faded away with new visions and desires.”

Of Daddy's Girl, says Diptaa: “This is Jeanne’s memory of a soccer field in Portland, Oregon, USA, where she used to play with her dad when she was a kid.”

All prints are archival. They are digitalised from original film photographs Diptaa took using a 120mm film camera.
