Since I began to make photographs so much of the process has been about letting go and listening well.
With each new day of picture-making I am Discovering what is already floating around in my unconscious, the lens helping bring to higher resolution that which is already directing my gaze.
Through this practice I am learning to pay better attention to what I am paying attention to.
My work is, at it’s essence, about the both/and, confronting and embracing conundrums and contradictions in the world and in myself. With a camera in hand all things become reflective surface, a mirror to the soul shining back what I hope against hope to see more clearly.
