Most of my projects deal with the underlying themes that shape our everyday lives. Social constructs that are taken for granted or subconscious drives that affect our sense of self and place in society. Having grown up in a small middle class American suburb I struggle with general ideas about expectations of place. I find the suburban lifestyle and landscape to be a concept and or construct of the imagination. Hopes and dreams are placed into homes, cars, purchases and implied social status.
My photographs and video deal with people and spaces and are direct reactions to the current American landscape. Whether it’s the subjects reacting to their environment or the landscape is itself as a strange and isolated example of an inner landscape.
