For two years, Andrew Ellis roams Richmond, Virginia’s streets like a gentle ghost. This once-brief home now reveals itself through his lens—each corner a whispered memory. His photographs capture fleeting moments where past meets present, where chance meetings bloom into revelation. In these images, the scattered fragments of self reassemble, telling stories of who we were and who we've become.
"This body of work is more about the liminal spaces we inhabit, the shifting boundaries between reality and dreams. This exploration of the human experience has guided me through moments of heartache and revelation. This revealed the transformative power of vulnerability; my emotions became a wellspring of creativity. Each step into the unknown, through familiar places that once shaped my identity, rekindled a profound connection to my past. In revisiting these magical landscapes—often during visits with friends—I found solace and inspiration among the echoes of my memories. Encountering a variety of individuals along this journey has shed light on our collective humanity, providing viewpoints that challenge my established beliefs and broaden my perspective. Through the use of metaphor and imagery, I encourage the viewer to immerse themselves in these transitional spaces, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and reflecting on life's mysteries inspires a sense of wonder. In this contrast between the past and the present, I contemplate the complexities of existence, urging each individual to recognize reflections of themselves in others, thereby weaving a rich understanding, connection, and self-reflection." -- Andrew Ellis
