With my photographs and my writing, I explore the borderlands between the visible, the associative, and the inner self.
The varying qualities of light create an atmosphere of poetry and melancholy, of something dreamlike. The interplay between sharpness and blur enhances the perception of color and reveals the ever-ephemeral nature of individual moments in the natural world.
I’m interested in the essence of things: in what we see, feel, and think; in the world beneath my skin and beyond it.
I collect words and thoughts and expand my photographs through language. When tree trunks turn to cocoa, when ice becomes light you can drink, and moss was once something that held me — and now lets me fall. And still, I gather myself again, rise, and move forward. That is what I write about.
I experience and photograph nature every day, and it never wears thin. To me, it only grows more beautiful.
