In this series Buckley shot a roll of 36 exposure analogue film every week for one year; her aim to produce a visual record of 12 months in her life. Turning her camera to record the minutiae and beauty present within the everyday, chance found still-lifes, decaying flowers, landscapes and holidays weave together to create an intimate portrait.

By waiting a further year before processing each film she established a deliberate distance in the work between the actions of capturing an image and seeing it compared to our current instantaneous hyper speed digital world.

Buckley elevates often overlooked everyday detritus generating a revealing collection of images whilst charting the inevitable passing of time. This documentary piece an investigation of how we archive and present ourselves as individuals against the ever more highly curated worlds of social media.

Creating a year in analogue retrospect and exploring how its often the everyday things surrounding us left unrecorded that tell us the most.
