Abstract
(type = summary)
My use of photography is rooted in the complexities of the photograph, its making, meaning and function. Human understanding and perception of the physical world (as Landscape and Nature) are sole concerns as I address the ambivalence that coincides with these ideas and the space in between. Can one achieve a work that illuminates both personally and collectively, privately and socially? By photographing constructed environments in the studio, can I challenge the photograph as "document" and the environment as fundamentally separate from human? With this work, I am hoping to accomplish several things through a hermeneutic based exploration: An engagement in a meditative, slow process, the revealing of a mindful, personal space,a deeper understanding of the environment and my place in it and the capability, functionality, conscious/unconscious uses of and meaning in photography and the photograph and, lastly, how the image affects human consciousness of and relationship to the physical world.
