Photography is a separate world that I can enter. I can create something that has meaning to myself and opens the minds of others. I want someone to look at my work and think. Not only do I want it to be aesthetically pleasing. I want others to take a glimpse into another mind. These images give me a feeling of comfort. I want to be able to take a step back and realize what’s inside that rectangle hole.
Trying to find something to shoot isn’t what I’m going for; I’m edging towards creating a feeling of excitement and imagination. I want to take these simplistic things and force them to feel released onto the page. Take them out of their world and give them a new way of being viewed.
Displaying these images is something I didn’t need to think about. If I’m shooting simple, why not present simple? So I did just that. I like the idea of being able to approach these images and not be afraid of what you see but wonder why its there….
