Abstract

The artist's statement: I am a photographer who focuses on analog materials and processes within my work. I feel that the process and medium in which the work is created inform the conceptual aspect of the work immensely. Through re3the use of film capture and alternative processes such as cyanotype, I often discuss issues of memory and other intangible emotional conditions. Artists such as Todd Hido and Ruth Thorne-Thomsen inform my practice in how I express these intangible conditions through color, light, and composition. Currently, I am exploring memory through photographing houses and manipulating the negative to print cyanotypes to create soft-focus images. The ethereal and evocative result is heightened by the hand-torn printing paper, brush strokes, and toning processes.
