My work explores and pushes the capabilities of photographic materials. I want to see how far I can push the boundaries of what is typically achieved. Although process is at the core of my artistic practice, I see my need to experiment as an extension of my curiosity about the world we exist in. I often explore how humans perceive and interpret, and how perception and memory affects how we experience and move through life. I question humanity’s place in the world as well as language’s ability– and inability– to describe life’s experiences. I see my work as just a piece of this puzzle, a call to engage with ideas and topics that are often overlooked, to foster a deeper understanding of our place, purpose, and impact in this universe. I see wet plate collodion as mimicking this fluctuation and shifting of memory and life as a whole.
