A Million Stories is an ongoing evolvingĀ allegorical (photo)-graphic narrative that began in the 1980's when homelessness became a part of the ongoing national conversation. I returned to this project in the 2010's to re-address related issues such as immigration issues and those who seek asylum migrating from war ravaged countriesĀ along with questioning notions of home, overpopulation, tradition and family.

Using the image of a house and that conceptual framework as metaphor, I seek to address our collective longing for connection and our similarities in these challenging times of division and separation.
