For the past few months, photographer Hannah Boone has been thinking a lot about how delicate life can be. Death is always around us, and it can creep up so suddenly. It is so easy to take life for granted, to live in total ignorance and naiveté. We focus on the future and romanticize the “what ifs” rather than being in the present moments that are given to us. The gift to breathe, to laugh, to sleep. But we need to stop and realize that there is going to be a day where we do our last of everything; The last time our hair is left in the sink after getting ready in the morning, the last time we crumple a napkin after finishing a delicious meal, the last time to fold a pile of clean laundry. Recently, she has been dealing with the emotions of losing her cousin. While it was twenty years ago, the pain of not feeling her presence still resides with Hannah. This project has been a journey for her, not just creating work but processing the pain and memories.
