See if you can guess the game!

By staging myself in the landscape I solve the dilemma of connecting with my environment. However, the laptop and headphones I employ represent an impasse with nature. Can you feel at one with the natural world while checking your email? Is it harder to maintain a relationship with the cosmos with more technological engagement? I believe an all-encompassing relationship with technology creates an immersive cushion that can blind us to the environments we are a part of.

The activity of connecting on a social networking site, browsing the day’s weblines, or absorbing new viral messages is highly immersive. Doing it within the context of the grandeur of nature introduces an absurdity element. It is this absurdity that interests me. At times I feel incapacitated by the torrent of decontextualized information streaming from the internet and television. Focusing on irrelevance and incoherence is easy when it’s at your fingertips. It seems our modern quandary is to reconcile our hyper-self-aware states with an ecological sustained relationship. These photos offer a personal reflection on these issues.

 

All images shot with 4×5 Sinar Camera, 90mm lens, Kodak Portra ASA 400 color film.

Look children. This picture shows the mother, the bronze mother sun turning her back on her son. A bastard of consumption. A soldier of the culture. Smirking behind his abscess. ~ Blind Johnson

The associations we make with animals, and ourselves regarding them, has been a notion of interest to me for some time. This an attempt at exploring this subject with a mediated domestic pet, through various human environments and situations.

There always exists an interesting relationship when two different neighborhoods are positioned right up against each other.

This was, for the most part, a performance art cataloging the breaking of this particular sheet of glass, as well as using the pieces to then build up and create something new.  Glass has always been an attractive material for me.

The re-constructed photo becomes this mix of delicate translucency with a fragile teetering of sharp, jagged rubble.  This is at its purest form a metaphor for life and the evolution of the self.

Humans living in colder climates have been rendered to surviving, for the most part, indoors during these times. In the sporadic weather of the midwest there are some amazing times of the year.  These photos offer a momentary exit to those times.
