Cats, friends, celebrities, lovers, chickens – recorded as even artefacts in a persistently growing catalogue. Each uniformly date-stamped photograph substantiates the concrete real with an accuracy of time: the one tangible thinning the natural slip between what we believe took place, what we remember taking place and what has taken place.

Sam uses these scattered devices – photo / hand-building / dates / typologies – to corroborate, to collect, to simultaneously bear witness and give testimony of his version of events and his connection with us – in short, compiling evidence – tracking his life with a set of visual languages equally fraught with the inaccuracies of nostalgia, clouded thinking, memory and truth. -AC
