For about 10 years, I would pass this neon sign traveling from NH on my way to New York City. I would always ask my boyfriend to tag that we were there, so I could shoot there at a later date- I never had time to stop.

The universe works in such mysterious ways. I was with him and a friend (who was to model in the astronaut shoot) on our way to NYC to shoot in times square, and 3/4 of the way there, our rental car broke down. I started panicking as the car began to die on the highway- I was BARELY able to get the car to an off-ramp and glide into a park and ride, and wouldnt you know it? The car died within site of the Hi-Ho Hotel. And the OTHER miracle was, when my boyfriend checked his facebook, his "on this day" memory was from exactly a year prior when he had tagged this very hotel. Crazy how things work out, right?

Photograph taken in February 2021.

I bought an authentic vintage high-altitude space suit in 2017 and have traveled with it for thousands of miles around the world taking photos of different people in it (mostly women).

While I was in an abandoned house one day, I thought about how strange it was to be in a space where people once lived, exploring their home and in turn, trying to piece together what the lives of the people who once lived there were like. I wondered if I was the only one who ever thought of them after they were gone- the only one to see their faces in photos and read their names on their mail after so many years. I then got to thinking, what if this happened across the whole world? What if humanity had to evacuate earth for some reason- maybe we destroyed the environment so much, or couldn't breathe the air (or both) and we had to leave? And what if- much like I was doing- several years later one person comes back to see how we all once lived?

And that was the start of "The Lonely Astronaut"
