| Your Personal Biography |
I’m not really sure at this point how art fits into my life; I just know the talent and the desire to create has always been there. Some of my first memories are of me sitting in the backyard making sculptures out of the mud. I remember when I began to like the art I produced even later when I was able to admit this to others and admit that my art was good. I think this was and still is hard because my work is in a way a piece of me, an image of the emotions I feel at the time. Saying the work is good means in some way, by some gift, I am good. This is something I still don’t know whether to accept.
I know that photographs have power, and many of mine are from countries I have visited where I feel corporate social responsibility in big business, and grassroots microfinance organizations can be used to empower people and lessen poverty. Since companies wield the power of influence over so much developing countries, their ethics and varying ideas of responsibility to the people whose land they are exploiting have immense consequences. |
