What follows is a growing collection of physical and ephemeral artifacts from the near-entirety of my adult life that I spent with Leland. The archive spans years dating back to our meeting when I was 18. Leland assisted in the memorializing project of my undergraduate thesis, where I explored the permanence of lived experience and loss through the categorization, archivalship, transformation and preservation of artifacts from a traumatic time in my life through transmuting them into indestructible physical and digital materials. I return to that process, working and re-working the images, artwork and writings we made for one another, to attempt to transcend loss, without and with him. This process will continue for the rest of my life.
