What Mo(u)rning Feels Like

The pictures in this series is a reaction to a personal experience of grief and loss following the murder of my father, Glenn Cofield, in Memphis, Tennessee. The pictures address issues of trauma and grief through documentation of events and moments within the last two and a half years after my father’s murder. The images seek to evoke the fragility of life, the devastation of sudden and violent loss, and the stain that grief left on a family in mourning. The search for meaning and perpetual impermanence are two grounding themes in this work. This work is as much a testament of debilitating loss as it is a personal journey of healing.
