Istiharoh Glasgow with Grandaughter Inca

Istiharoh Glasgow with Grandaughter Inca

A year ago today, my mother, Istiharoh Glasgow passed from the reality we know as life. She was a source of great strength and guidance to the many that called her friend. She was a talented poet and designer, and as you can see from her expression in this photo with my daughter Inca, loved her grandchildren. She always said people come first, and I forget those words at my own peril.

We all miss you mom.

This self portrait from my series “Interiors” is taken next to the wall that had marks on the wall to mark our individual growth,  shrinkage or stagnation. I presume it has been painted over by the new owners.

The photo is taken in my latest bedroom in my former childhood house. My daughter Ora was born in this room.

I stand in this bedroom’s dressing room. It was at various times a place where my desk sat, my daughter Inca’s bedroom.

Self Portrait in the Living Room

I sit in the empty living room that I grew up. This was a room not often empty of people, let alone furniture. The lonely nature of the  photograph corresponds to effect of looking at this room for me now. I have warmed up the tones because this place was warm and full of life.
