::Artist’s Statement::
After many years away from the camera in my early 20s, I returned to photography as a model, makeup artist and muse, which eventually lead me back to my camera. As a model I travelled quite a bit, and fell in love with the documentation of the world around me. As a personal belief, I feel as though the world has closed its eyes- and I wanted to reopen them, not out of the typical fear-driven-media models, but in love, inspiration and admiration for the diversity and beauty that exists in all things- animate or inanimate.
My work isn’t about elevation, but cataclysms. I hope only to spawn thought and reflection- all private reactions to the visual and written forms of my art, in order to catalyze the viewer’s innate creative self. Through these private moments, awakenings and revelations of the viewer, I truly hope that they can then move to continue the cycle of inspired freedom of self. Photography and writing in combination is so engaging to me; as well as the muse-artist tug-of-war that is incessant within—the combination between the “left brain” and the “right brain” keeps me on my toes and consistently challenged, even though some of my projects are solely one or the other.
The beauty of the land captures my heart, and the ability to stand outside of the human existence as merely an observer to that which is almost obsolete to most eyes, is what drives my perspective as a photographer and a writer. Through my own introspections and documentations I hope to create a span of imagery and writing to influence even the most closed of hearts to escape their own neighborhoods and immerse themselves in light and land.
Another driving motivation is the exploration of the ordinary and the emphasis on internalization. Abstraction in a familiar voice is what I strive for. My obsession with the ordinary is uncontrollable – hence the explorative approach to most of my human and non human subjects alike. Soulshine is often a dark-path-which-leads-us-to-the-light intuition. In order to find truths, you must dispel the delusions.
Lastly my client work also satisfies my need to realize other’s visions and allows me to live vicariously through their interpretations of space and time. This echoes the internalization of my other work; in that I am allowed inside of their creative self to mold and shape the essence of their vision to something that translates to many.
