A goal of mine is to create work that invites viewers in, work that isn’t just for me, but for everyone. I want people of all ages to feel something, to have a shared experience with the image, to feel like they are in the photograph, feeling the wind, the sun, hearing the sounds of the coast. I want my work to be easy and slow, simple yet evocative, something that feels good to look at and makes the viewer want to stay with it, and then move on to the next image with curiosity and wonder. Photography has become a way for me to express my deep connection to this place, and through embracing movement, color, and imperfection, I’ve found myself reconnecting with the landscape in a more emotional and personal way.
Different from my normal photographs showing the relationship between land and people, my new ongoing body of work explores land vs person and how we value land over people and people over land.
