Artist’s Statement
Recently my methods of work have become highly process based.
As an artist, photography and video are my main mediums.
My photography has spontaneous and organic feeling. I use simple and straightforward visual aesthetics to portray everyday life complex situations. In all mediums, my work is designed to encourage the viewers to create their own interpretation of the narrative. I believe my photographs are residue partly remembered events and forgotten moments each of which has fused its own narrative history. The majority of the work I produce uses as its starting point my own personal history; or more specifically, the memories I associate with particular moments in my past.
