My photography is minimalist in style and usually employs an abstract or graphic treatment. It's based on my fascination for abstraction and serendipity in our visual world. Rather than method or fabrication, I rely on my eye to capture things, people as I see them in the moment; just as they are. Things that work really well in the abstract are repeating shapes and the random, yet strange and beautiful presentation of unexpected elements when the light or angle of view is just right. With my lens, I extract things, people, scenes from their ordinary context. What I love most about working with abstraction is the ambiguity it creates; anything to challenge our sensibilities and our need to make sense of the world. My eye also naturally leans toward graphic subjects where color or a strong graphic structure dominates. I want to communicate a sense of balance and stark simplicity in the photographs I create. What drives me more than anything is my desire to uncover the dualities present in visual phenomena, to get at the history and emotion that lies beneath all things, all people.
