Positive growth.

Nature, in the common sense, refers to essences unchanged by man; space, the air, the river, the leaf. Art is applied to the mixture of his will with the same things, as in a house, a canal, a statue, a picture.

We must trust the perfection of the creation so far, as to believe that whatever curiosity the order of things has awakened in our minds, the order of things can satisfy. Every man’s condition is a solution in hieroglyphic to those inquiries he would put.

    The thing that most defined this project, for me, was the lack of people as photographic subjects. What started as a regret of working in such an impersonal, commercial setting, and finding myself unable to reasonably obtain consent for such shots, became a core part of the work as my story shifted into an exploration…

    For the video story, I’m looking to create a narrative based on rain. More specifically, I’m probably going to convey a shift in a protagonist’s perspective (probably their relationship to nature and/or themselves), through the lens of rain, all the while mirrored by changes in the natural landscape that also result from the rain.
