In this project, I was thinking about memories with my family and about my grandma. I took some photos this summer of her teaching the rest of my family how to make Lithuanian dumplings. In my psychology class it is interesting because we have been learning about how distortion happens to what we remember over time. This is why I chose to make my image a bit distorted, and not so clear. I also love gradient maps, and wanted to emulate this with this piece. Yellow, green and red are the colors of the Lithuanian flag as well.
