“Outside In” Series
As a photographer, I’m more like an illustrator in that I create visual representations of ideas. I begin each series by drawing inspiration from the everyday world around me. I come up with a concept and then I create sketches for the ideas that I wish to envision. The final images are created on the computer. These constructed photographs, or tableaux, are composites made using several images. The images are photographs of constructions and set ups both inside as well as outside. Exploring my conceptual and subjective, or inner space, these images explore the intrusion of the outside into the inside. I have always loved working in photography for its veracity. I transform the ordinary world around me to create surreal, subtle, and poetic images that cause the viewer to do a double take.
