Katinka Barragan (b. 1996, Texas) is a photographer and artist interested in memory, identity, nostalgia, and the ways time changes both people and places. Her work often uses staged imagery, psychological narrative, and aging or transitional spaces to explore the tension between how we see ourselves and how we imagine we are seen. She is drawn to the strange beauty of decay and moments that feel suspended between memory and fiction.
