My photography deals with the nature of memory and experience; as well as the relationships between my experience, that memory and its creation and existence as a photograph.
One theory about how our memory functions suggests that every time a memory is recalled, it is altered by the act of remembering. As if every time a picture is drawn, it’s slightly different, with less and less fidelity to the original experience. That perhaps a memory kept for years, yet recalled only once is more accurate than one brought to mind regularly.
I combine images of mine without regard to their specific origin. The original images were captured years apart and under a wide array of circumstances. These new sets create harmonies and interactions that speak to the fundamental nature of how I see. By fitting together so well, they reinforce the choices made, from what’s seen, to what’s recorded and nurtured to what’s finally presented and made special.
