Amy Friend is a Canadian artist and photographer. In this series ‘Dare alla Luce’, she takes vintage photos and puts holes in them. The work is then shown with a light box behind it creating a magical quality. Friend has spoken about her approach to this type of work and has said:
‘I aim to comment on the fragile quality of the photographic object but also to the equal fragility of our lives, our history’.
This would suit a theme based around family narratives, obscured or narratives.
