I’ll Kiss Your Other Cheek

in Issue 94 | Generation (Feb 2019)

“I took these photos in 2016-2018 when I was living abroad and missing home dearly. In reference to what my grandmother would say before farewells, ‘I’ll kiss your other cheek when you get back,’ this project is an effort to maintain personal identity and a strong sense of home through photographs.”

Image description: an older person of indeterminate gender sits at their desk next to a sunlit window. Their face is partially hidden by a microwave on a ledge on top of which a small potted plant sits. An orange cat sits above and behind them and watches them work. Beyond the dirty vertically-hinged panes of glass, the tops of gray buildings can be seen.
