PLACES IN-BETWEEN

There are places that exist in a liminal state between the real and the imagined - where human and natural environments blend, and time ebbs & flows without order. Places In-between is a representation of my years of exploration as an archaeologist and photographer. I believe that cultural places hold emotions and memories, and it has been my experience that if you look and listen carefully, you can see, hear, and feel them. All things absorb and reflect light throughout their lifetime. The energy of light affects and informs all things, and if you look closely, you can see hidden layers of substance, texture, and tone. I perceive these “in-between” places as portals that are covered in a veil, and if peeled away, you can see what is, what was, and what might be. By conducting and archaeological study of light, these veiled places are shown to be subtle and frail, with decay and rebirth all around. The photographs chosen for this exhibition are a subset of my larger portfolio titled The Archaeology of Light. To view that body of work click on the RECENT WORK tab at the top of this page.
