I looked back and you were gone

 

 

This series came after the death of both Soraya's parents. Experimenting both with traditional photographic techniques and computer manipulation, she has created images which derive from childhood memories. This series is based around the her childhood home, where the reality of the decaying house is intertwined with it’s surrounding garden and woods to create an imaginary landscape. The pictures are interlocked with momentos from her family, drawing on ideas about memory and dreams to create a surrealistic atmosphere in the photographs and play with the concept of nature claiming back the man made space.
