Home Movies McCall employs the cinematic qualities of found vintage photographs to construct narratives exploring the passage of time, transition, transformation, and loss. Each scene is directed by McCall as she hand-paints color swatches and pattern across the enlarged vintage images essentially reframing them to reveal gestures of unfinished stories and memory's murky sense. The resulting images are familiar yet intriguing visions of vernacular settings. Gallery Associate Lucas Shaffer spoke with Molly McCall about the series, her overall photographic practice, and how she began making images.
