Photographic Series in Progress: Site Unseen & Natural Selections
My photographic projects reflect an intention to capture and explore the subtle but observable changes that happen in natural settings. The landscapes act not as visual observable fact but consider the idea of observation itself. The quality of the landscape is evoked through light and atmospheric conditions. Atmospheric reduction in visual information gives the images a mood and space, a portal for looking that leaves the viewer with the potential for observation and ultimately with themselves. Additional information in the landscape becomes a metaphor for the disruption of that state of being and explores stories regarding a state of paradise lost with the disruption of knowledge and thought. Influences originate from Japanese printmaking and photography, painting, eastern philosophy, and ideas concerning both affinity and the infinite.
