My art explores Time, Space, Light and Form in photography. By playing with the dimensional qualities of the photographic surface and opening up visual depth to the viewer, my work asks questions about what is being seen, how things might appear and how we negotiate, interpret and give meaning.
These photos have been created digitally as part of a film I made called ‘The Little Ones’. It is a rich mythology following two best friends on a journey through the elements to the land of the dead.
Days of Winter is a journey along a body that aims to examine skin through the nudity of certain shapes. I have conceived that journey as a search from the whole to the part, from a perspective of the entire body to a glance of fragments of such a body, from representation to abstraction.
"We are a way for the universe to know itself. Some part of our being knows this is where we came from. We long to return. And we can, because the cosmos is also within us. We're made of star stuff." My images are created with NASA imagery taken from space, composited with self-portraits, and merged as if it is a part of what surrounds us.
Endogenesis: /Ɛndə(Ʊ)ˈdʒɛnꞮSꞮS/: Growth from within the idea of a human being trapped by their own feelings, thoughts, ideas, phobias, sentiments, and weaknesses, and how to break out of this circle of oppression or depression was the point of reference for this work.
Enlightenment provides viewers and me with a hopeful message in these dark and complicated times. Instead of greed, corruption, famine, plague and war, we are reminded of humanity’s other offerings: charity, equality, social consciousness, wisdom and civility.
