Artist's Statement

My current work comes from my interest in narrative, cinema and its relationship to photography and consists of a combination of photographs of actual natural landscapes (forest, sea, desert), architecture (interior/exterior of a house) and people as well as hand-made, fabricated environments (architecture and landscape). Within each series, some photographs are from my personal archive, others were shot specifically for a series. By exploring how the individual image can transcend its own limits, and by association, provide the opportunity for a pictorial narrative to unfold each story forms something of a larger narrative that continues to reveal itself in a variety of forms like an artist book, or photographic series. All of which rely on the fundamentals of narrative to examine and comment on the human experience. In addition to my individual ventures, over the years I have collaborated with various artists on projects that include creating artist's multiples, artist books and series of photographs and videos.
