Hayden Brooks (b. 2002) is a photographer from Cleveland, Ohio whose work explores topics of memory rooted in place, familial ties, natural topographies, and identity. In a continual investigation of self and becoming, her photographs function as touchstones, connecting her to seminal spaces saturated with shared memory.
