HERE NOR THERE
I find it intriguing how our minds try to make sense of things by filling in the blanks with experiences and memories. Here Nor There is a body of work that exemplifies this frame of reference. At first glance, the images seem familiar and real, our minds filling in the gaps, and at second glance, a bit more curious... Creating miniature landscapes (tabletop size) in my studio allowed me to explore and challenge the perception of reality in a fun and imaginative way. After photographing the landscapes, I photograph real people to interact within them. Bearing feelings of joy, wonder and solitude, the illusion of the vast landscapes isolate the singleness of each individual while providing the space for the characters to act upon internal feelings of being-in-the-world.
