TITLE: Emotional Landscapes

I have recently felt safe lingering in secluded territories, representative of life’s thresholds. Where end and beginning converge, both disconnected from man’s defined culture and time.
 
My photographic interest stretches between the schism of modern man's perturbing conduct in nature and the meditative quality these places have with their alluring, confident, melancholic pull away from the charge of daily life, transcending me from criticism to curiosity.
 
Here, I search for the single point of confluence, where order and chaos, beauty and death, mind and matter coincide. In the photographic equilibrium point, the physical space becomes mental and the internal vision becomes real.
