Artists Statement 1.0

I am a voyeur in nature. I prefer to analyze, evaluate and not get too
intimate. It’s been manifested in almost every relationship I’ve had
with every thing or person I’ve met. I get close, examine, enjoy, and
interact, but rarely do I allow anything in too deep. With
photography, the art itself seems to be voyeuristic, but in reality, it
allows an openness that is expressed in a passive manner. The image is
captured and stored in a light-tight box, only to be viewed and enjoyed
later (although digital capture adds a bit of immediacy). Thus while I
may be placing myself in my photography, it is only when it is viewed
that the cycle completes itself.
