We could dive into our archives and find interviews with nearly endless photographers who’ve channeled trauma into their images. Learning how to transmute feelings into something else is truly important not only for self-expression but for humanity. Those memories take shape in a subtle yet cinematic way in Tracy L. Chandler’s series A Poor Sort of Memory. The series, which has been in the PH Museum, is now being made into a book by Deadbeat Press and will launch in September of 2024. Of course, trauma changes over the years for all of us. So how does that affect our image-making process?
