My photographic process entails the solitary exploration of out-of-the-way places. I experiment with limited light and color to encapsulate feelings of being adrift, studying a peacefulness within myself that is tainted by a background sense of disquiet.
In my work I attempt to present the sublime beauty of places which have a greatness beyond measurement or imitation, places besides which we recognize our own insignificance and limitations.
Whilst seeking out these locations I am also drawn to the world on a smaller scale, creating visually simple but absorbing images through high contrast tones and muted colours.
