ARTIST STATEMENT


I describe my work as Art Photography. Most of my productions are deconstruction and recontextualizing, as in abstraction and electronic collaging. I possess a few technical skills necessary for photojournalism and landscape shots, but I seek more personal expression and creativity rather than discovery and precise recording of a scene or moment. I enjoy found art, which serves as a springboard for imaginative composition and richer interpretation of the literal world of photo-making. I like to start with a recognizable image or collection, or a familiar idiom or axiom, and recreate and rearrange around it, with unexpected elements that freshen or discombobulate the central theme. My lenses (cameras and computers) are visionary tools and I embrace and employ them as such. 

All the works enclosed are electronic collage, rather than tactile cut-and-pastes. Some contain original photographs of mine.
