The new photographs by Katherine Hubbard in Artist-to-Artist continue her project with her mother, Antonette Berger, in Berger’s Philadelphia home. Initiated in 2020, the work began as Berger was experiencing severe memory loss, subsequently being diagnosed with LATE, a brain disease resembling Alzheimer’s. Using two large-format 4×5 film cameras, Hubbard and Berger move through the house with props and mirrors, creating images that echo daily rituals. Hubbard’s work draws on the home’s architecture, touch and gesture to reflect a bond shaped by love and routine, amid a shifting landscape of memory and loss.
