Artist Statement
"I seek to capture the beauty in the universality, even mundanity within modern human life and the human built environment in an effort to elevate disregarded settings and gestures to greatness.
Expanding the liminal spaces and experiences with minimally processed photographs so as to invite an elastic sense of knowing has always been exciting and challenging. Undertaking definitive series supports my immersion in totality - physically and emotionally, allowing an unearthing of the nuanced divergences and parallelisms."
