Photography is a way for me to express what is difficult to articulate in words through a medium that exists at the periphery of language. Throughout history, the photograph has demonstrated the “epiphanic power of images to shift our vision of the world.”* I often use image-making either as an in-the-moment diary of experience or as a visual catalogue during field research.

​

Many of these images were not created as part of a preconceived project or body of work. Instead, I often organize them into thematic collections many months after they were taken. The resulting galleries therefore hold both spontaneity and reflection, immediacy and deliberation. Together, the collections presented here trace the imprint of humanity upon the living landscape.
