My projects use photography, often with found and archival material, as the point of departure to explore constructs that question perspectives on history, memory, and place. I use the camera as an intuitive tool to document environments that include people, sites, and objects with micro-narratives. These juxtapositions create and uncover new meanings that challenge psychological landscapes of interior/exterior, notions of identity, and the many definitions of attachment. I frequently alter images subtly in a painterly fashion in the studio to enhance and emphasize visual narratives. I build my ideas on scaffolds of importance as photographs, juxtapose and sequence with each other in artist books and photographic installations that suggest unfolding, enigmatic stories.
