Currently based in Richmond, Virginia, Chloe H. continues to explore themes of aeviternity- a state between eternity and temporality which is unchanging, and resides outside of time. They are interested in creating their own pictorial folklore to provide answers for their inner child’s questions that remain unanswered regarding their grieving parent’s home, cluttered with dated eclectic decor and unknown family histories.
