This body of work draws inspiration from a variety of different sources ranging from cinema, Jungian theory and the subconscious. Surreal and slightly unsettling, these images are meant to be felt more than they are seen.

My work is centered on the transformative powers of books, how, by reading one new virtual dimension is created in the mind of the viewer. With the books I collect I am seeking to create tangible landscapes where  there had previously only been an imaginary one. The images are not about reflecting a specific book or story. Rather they are manifestations of many things that have caught my eye going through the pages, a word or image that resonates with me and conjures up a strong visual or concept.

We are incredibly dependent on bees for their part in cross-pollinating almost all bases of our food sources.  Between industrial beekeeping, hobbyists, romantics, a threat of tragic disappearances, deaths  and declines in the bee population, with the greater public stranded between mystery of causes and dooming possibilities, leaving much unknown. 
This work captures a bit of it all.

 This body of work is a look at nature.  I chose to photograph leaves because there is a unique quality in each and every leaf.  Each leaf is printed individually on clear film, which allows for the light to show through the image and also allows the shadow of the leaf to be seen on the wall behind the image.

The pulp genre of the 1940's and 50's is where I gathered the inspiration for this project. The vibrant and dramatic illustrations seen on the covers of pulp novels and magazines have such a vibrance of light and color. For this project, I am attempting to revive this genre of kitsch with the medium of photography.
The relationships between these characters is based on the struggle of sexuality, as men attempt to remain dominant in physical presence, and women's use of her sexuality. This struggle can be compared to my own personal relationships with men, and my idea of modern romance.

Right now this work is really about experimentation, lighting, color, form and using natural objects. I was first inspired by some of Mona Kuhn's black and white work and then when I started using objects I began thinking about the Dutch Venitas paintings and the idea of presenting objects. Although I know what I want visually from this work, the exact meaning of behind it still has yet to come.
