“Light is unlocked, received and revealed as the fundamental penetrating force of the universe…” Lyle Rexer

Light is an essential life-giving element, whether it’s the light that allows me to photograph, the light that emanates from a light bulb or the light  that nourishes a flower. The seemingly contradictory natures of flowers and light bulbs come together for me in the images I call Dichotomy.

Looking past the reality of the image of a flower, I search for distinct gradations and hints of colors and textures that allow me to see beyond the boundaries of nature. Alluding to the possibility of what could be holding up the flower, I am playing with visual acuity and meaning. In this way, I offer the opportunity to rethink color, texture, shape and meaning. By discovering and revealing hidden nuances and unique combinations, I strive to provide moments that capture the unexpected.
