In pursuing my photographic activities, my aim is not to map out, to document, or to construct a narrative.
For me, a photographic project emerges simply at the intersection of two elements: a geographic location and a camera.
Geography is shorthand for a particular cultural matrix, an architecture, a landscape, a particular quality of light.
A camera is a technical artefact that triggers a particular way of moving through and looking at the visible world.
Together, camera and location create a space to liberate my photographic imagination. And the outcome of that process is always unpredictable. These portfolios are nothing more than the sediment resulting from this confrontation.
