Artist Statement:
My work reflects my beliefs
on the conflicts between
nature and humanity. The
photographs attempt to create
a dream-like vision of
serenity and natural beauty,
far from the realities of a
rapidly developing modern
society. This illusion is
created by the cleanliness of
the image: the simple
composition, the black and
white fiber paper, the white
matting, and the wood frame.
Light adds to this fantasy
and gives my images strength.
The lighting on the trees,
stones, ferns, and fog
radiates from the images
forever frozen in time. This
time stop allows me to really
examine how light shapes my
perceptions of the world.
This vision is not our waking
world, it is one manipulated
and crafted, first through an
optical lens, and finally
realized through silver,
evoking a soft quality of
luminescence.
I choose natural compositions
in order to create a sense of
well being, and to eliminate
the subject itself. I do not
"set-up" situations or create
still-lives, I look for
spatial and compositional
relationships that have
texture and value. It is a
process of discovery rather
than one of preconceived
vision. The Pacific Northwest
landscape provides endless
natural compositions through
which I can express...
