I’m not really an artist who comes up with a well-defined project ahead of time. So it’s hard to say how this project started other than saying that one photograph has lead me to the next.
There are elements of my work that are consistent and help bind the images to each other but I didn’t start by saying that I want to investigate “x” but rather the photographs have helped inform me as to what I’m interested in. The best analogy that I can use to describe my relationship to photography is that it’s kind of like I’m having a conversation with myself but the problem is that one of the “self’s” in the conversation only speaks Spanish and I (the other “self”) really don’t speak Spanish but sometimes I’m fortunate enough to pick out some of the words. I’m trying to piece together a conversation through fragments.
