displaced topographies

This recent series focuses on the constructed narrative, borrowing freely from both literary and cinematic structures. With the persistent expectation of a beginning (introduction), middle (plot development) and end (resolution), these works function as a loop, cycling the viewer back through each in a search for coherence. The resulting diptychs and triptychs comment on ideas of displacement, inherent in the very nature of still photography– and its practitioners long history of documenting place.
