I have found memory to be such a fleeting and fickle companion. Photography for me is a way of capturing unique moments that speaks to a universal human condition. One moment I can hold in my hands and relive time and again without relying on misfiring neurons and synapses. This is a way of hardening memory and emotion. You take your newborn child’s foot and make a clay impression because you know, the moment the clay is dry, that body will never really be the same. You know as time goes by, exponential changes that stager the imagination leave you thinking “was he ever really that small?, “could I have held that tiny foot in my hand?”. I create images to make emotional clay impressions of the things I see (or don’t really see, as the case may be) in my life. I press fresh joy, power, freedom, anger, beauty, surprise, happiness, into the mold of my imagination and solidify it so I can know it and enjoy it again. I use different techniques to generate my images; color, B&W, Infrared, SX-70 and Polaroid manipulations, digital manipulations and modifications because someone once said (and I believe) that sometimes an artfully created fiction is more truthful that the actual truth. I am after the poetic and lyrical truth of the subject rather than the literal truth.
