Rebecca McGetrick



Taken over the course of a year, They absent themselves deals with the reflections of a visiting migrant to their birth place. Things are much the same, yet, different.

There’s an uneasy realization that once familiar places no longer exist and that once familiar faces no longer recognize you.
I've aimed to explore a narrative which follows my memories of the past as well as my impressions of the present.

Ultimately this project is a meditation on rural life as
Lived by my childhood self.
