Artist Statement
I am fascinated by the natural world around us and how, if we look closely enough, we can more strongly sense both its beauty and its harshness. Godiva Ascends depicts an errant strand heading toward the sun and away from the swaying tangles. The bold yet soft imagery evokes emotions associated with both the independent spirit and the comfort of sameness.
My camera lens allows me to explore, embrace, and deeply experience our emotional connection with nature. What I most want people to take away from my photographic work is to have sensed one small slice of their environment in a new way: to see something they have not experienced before in quite the same way.
Taking advantage of solely natural light, my work emphasizes the mood of the natural environment. A shallow depth of field further draws us into an insular microhabitat. Aflame reminds us of a strong flame yet one that emanates from a cool, blue center. We are drawn to this balance, which perhaps sustains us.
