  • Abstraction: Strings
    "Strings" is art born from other art, a subject I love to explore. The exhibit featured a room, filled with ribbons suspended from the ceiling. The ribbons were spaced just a few inches away from each other, to create a space through which one could meander through. Over time, I dove further into this artificial space, shifting my perspective. My experience morphed from a surface observation to a meditation on motion.

  •   Sabulosities
    Configurations of sand, shadows and objects on a remote strip of beach create these works of art. These random elements formed transient arrangements, inspiring me to capture them before all disappeared as swiftly as they came to be.

  • Deconstruction I
    As I explored the Old City, I stumbled on a large number of chairs, just outside of the city wall. They were obviously set up for an event of some sort, but not a soul was yet around. It was a very sunny day, and the chairs were perfectly arranged in rows. The combination of the colors and the precise position struck me as visually compelling. Enough to spend two hours on photographing the chairs.

    The images began as chairs, and became a meditation on color and space.
