"My photography explores contemporary conceptions of nature, representation, and the role of the photograph in our understanding of each. By manipulating focus, scale and color, I play with the tension photography creates between a subject/object and its photographic representation.  I am, in effect, asking the viewer to consider how photographic vision shapes our expectations of the actual, and the consequences this has on how we imagine and engage the world. I want these images to function variously as a celebration of the transformative possibilities of photography; as a small rebellion against the persistence of, and our faith in, the ‘straight’ photograph; and finally as a means questioning not only of how photography represents ‘what was before the lens’ but how it comes to shape our very imagination of what ‘is’ and what is possible."
