Things As They Are:
These images are concerned with the actual and observable - things as they are. Light, color, plane and line are used deliberately and concretely, as they are actual things and elements that, mediated by the lens, become something more universal and abstract. In the photographs, shadows and reflections are as palpable as the objects that cast them. I am interested in using the camera to enable a kind of slow seeing that moves these simple still life arrangements into a more ambiguous and open ended spatial condition.
