liquid, part one
Another little project that I've been working on:liquid. Particularly, ambiguous liquid. I'll leave the explanation at that for the moment.
self-objectification
These are selections from my final project for intermediate photography. This was an independent project and I had to write a proposal, so to explain I will just include an excerpt from that proposal/artist statement:
"Beginning with my Framing and Portrait projects during Basic Photography last spring I have been intensely interested in three distinct, though deeply inter-referential, ideas. These are, generally, concepts and exploration of self-perception...and human relation, connection and conversely, isolation and objectification. I have, in some way or other, been exploring these ideas and questions in all my photographic endeavors to date. My idea, then, for my final, independent project is to do a self-portrait project, which attempts to confront the following questions: how do we perceive ourselves?...What is the line between exploitation and expression? Do photographs automatically objectify and isolate their subjects?"
These photos, along with the others not shown where, were presented against a white wall in a large collage including prints ranging in size from 4x6 to 16x20.
note: There were quite a few other photos that I am choosing not to include here for various reasons, so these few are not in any way the full extent of this project, but a limited selection.

home, part one
Just a little project I'm working on about ideas and images of home. Pretty simple concept, but it has been nagging at me for a while so I thought I'd try it. I've spent most of my life calling more than one place home so that word holds deep and complex meaning for me.
tech specs: these are digital photos originally taken in color but later converted to black and white.
