Artist Statement
The blue of the water against the black of night creates a play of color and movement. From the individual sprays generated at the base of the image to the overlapping streams at the top, there is an energy created which is mesmerizing. The eye moves back and forth, side to side, to take in the whole. The void in the top left is balanced by the thickness on the bottom right. Both areas of dark creating the background for the culmination of spray in the top center. Water viewed as life itself, moving in many directions, with an almost spiritual beginning and end, capturing individuality and coming together as one.
I photograph what everyone sees, but does not see. The simplicity of a city fountain becomes the complexity of many brushes on canvas. The mix of colors, of movement, and of angles tell the story the eye does not see at first glimpse. Focusing on a small part of the whole, capturing it in a moment in time, and with the light just right, is the challenge.
