Artist's Statement
The camera is an extension of my subconscious mind sometimes
I may as well not even be holding it, it may as well go off on
its own because while I'm photographing, the meaning isn't
always apparent. Not until the images reveal themselves on a contact
sheet do I realize that the process has taught me something about
myself and the world around me. Photography brings what is not
visible to the surface. The definition of light is the essential
condition of vision the opposite of darkness.
To have the faith to let go, to explore, to trust, to give, to
receive without the need to see reason, or predict and
control the outcome has been a challenge for me in how
I approach both my life and my art.
