Artist Statement:
My path to pinhole has been
long. I had been
photographing for 20 years,
trying to make photos that
embodied the beauty of the
world. Sometimes I was
successful, sometimes not, but
I didn't feel fully engaged in
my photography. I felt that I
wanted to make meaningful
photographs, so I began to
really work at it. I shot
hundreds of rolls of film and
made thousands of digital
exposures. I did what
thousands of other
photographers have done and
made photographs like
thousands of others .
But that's not what I wanted.
So I came to pinhole.
Pinhole is my way to show the
true condition of the natural
world, unsteady and uncertain,
illusory and ephemeral. Just
as when we are immersed in a
stream, we do not notice the
individual drops of water - we
feel "water". Over time, we
do begin to notice distinct
currents in the larger stream.
My pinhole photography is an
attempt to communicate the
entirety of my surroundings -
not as separate parts, but as
that flowing wholeness. ...
