“White Sands 3" 2008 15x20 Archival Pigment print face mounted to Acrylic.
ARTIST STATEMENT
My work is a visual dialogue between being and nature. I aim to find a primal or base narrative about the way humans interact with the land. My subject matter ranges from barren landscapes to mega cityscapes. The work hovers around our short-lived place in the world. I use both dramatic angles, often aerial shots as well as complete deadpan views with virtually blank skies as a way of disorienting the viewer, and allowing for a much more open narrative. Minimalism, geometry, and abstraction, along with unpeopled landscapes force us to question our preconceptions about living with nature. I'm interested in the paradox of the human need to control the natural world but at the same time feeling very alien and detached from the soil.
