| About the Artist | |
For me photography is an interactive practice that links chance encounters with the external world to an internal world looking for meaning. Part of this exploration is about trying to impose a sense of order on our experience of life; the other part is about searching for insight which says something about ones inner feelings. Of course what is produced is never fully clear, never explicit, and being a visual medium cannot be adequately put into words. |
