Nina used her camera to try and understand her own response to the increasing frailty of her grandfather echoed in the deterioration of the house and garden. As nature began to encroach on the structure of the building and return the garden to an overgrown wilderness Nina's series of images became a metaphor for her grandfather's inability to control his own life as dementia slowly overtook him.

Though inspired by very personal reasons, "Morfar" looks beyond Nina's own experiences and memories and explores our understanding of how identity is made. Often thought of as fixed and routed in the past, our identities are in fact fluid, ever changing as our circumstances alter. Her grandfather, a proud market gardener, famous for his tomatoes at the local farmer's market was defined through the ownership of his plot of land. Yet as his memory failed and he forgot who he was, so he abandoned his house, the physical expression of his ambitions and dreams.
