About the Artist

I don’t set out to make a specific image; rather, I choose physical elements and locations that I feel have a curious affinity for one another. I then purposefully, place these elements together in ephemeral assemblages. My goal is to cultivate unexpected visual references with the potential to surprise. I photograph these set ups, then, using my computer, I layer, alter and manipulate the raw photos as I search for the new images within.

Working digitally with my computer allows me to see in new ways; it affords me the opportunity of being surprised and inspired by the unexpected outcome.

I took a photo of Barack Obama from my TV screen during election night. I manipulated it in Photoshop to create this photo. I was inspired to create a congratulatory image to commemorate the Nobel Peace Prize.
