Project |01 Portraits and Places Through Barriers
​
People and places are often seen through barriers, yet our minds eye fills in the gaps of these barriers without our noticing. This project is meant to not only force viewers to recognize that these barriers exist, but see what information we can gain about people just using the visual information provided.
Project |02 The Bed Sheet Portraits
​
For this work, I wanted to explore the idea that people have an intimate relationship with their beds. I realized that it’s not necessarily the beds themselves that show this intimate space, but rather the relationship between a person and his or her sheets. The choice of sheets becomes an extension of the person’s persona.
Project |03 Decisions Through a Lifetime
​
My concentration depicts the decision-making process beginning at trivial childhood toward more life changing adulthood. As people develop their decisions become more important because of the potential impact on their lives. Decisions become more complex as do the emotions. This is demonstrated through a lifetime of opportunities and choices that one makes, like the ones I expect to encounter. The decisions depicted in each work signify choices that I’ve made or will make in my life.
Just a sample of my work. To see more or discuss possible work >>
