Imagine how different your life might have been if you'd taken another path at a crucial turning point in your past. Aquamarine explores the intricate ways early choices reverberate through the life. Shown in triptych is Jesse Austin, on the verge of turning 40 in 1990, inhabiting three equally plausible lives.
Jesse's choices have variously brought her to marry, divorce or remain single; to love men or women; to live close to her Missouri hometown or deliberately far away. But each life is haunted by the moment she can't get back to, when she lost the hundred metre freestyle at the 1988 Olympics to a fatally seductive Australian swimmer, Marty Finch.
