photo sketchbook

this series began as a way to see more clearly. i once said, i take photos so i do not have to remember — that remains true. over time these images have become a quiet sketchbook, a way of processing the world through formal attention to color, shape, texture and light. each photograph is less a document than an act of distillation — breaking down experience into clarity and simplicity.

the work resists the demand for product and permanence. unprinted and uneditioned, the photographs remain open, unfinished and unclaimed. they function as gestures of attention, small acts of maintenance that allow for pause.

this series sits at the intersection of ritual, labor and care. it is research by other means — a form of drawing with light and time, an exercise in noticing, a tether to moments, a trail of breadcrumbs. these images are less about memory than about relation — how one encounters the world, how one learns to see and how one might begin to create otherwise.
