What does a daughter owe a mother who chose to disappear?

Finding Light is a multigenerational novel that follows one family through the photographs they took, kept, lost, and found again.

Each of them saw through a different camera — Francis and Darla on film, Sophie on disposable cameras, early digital and phone, Lila through Instagram.

These photographs were made for the novel: some taken, some built from my own archive, some generated. See how they were made here. ‍ ‍
