art conversations

I haven’t been everywhere yet, but it’s on my to-do list. I have visited a fair bit of the world, though, witnessing it all with the skepticism of a native New Yorker. My first years in the military reshaped me. The New Yorker in me got pummeled. I learned. Traveled. Relearned. That became my habit. When complacency sets in, I know it’s time to move again. Along the way, I learned first the camera, and later the pen. Today I carry both and they war with each other for my attention.

While stationed at Eielson Air Force Base, I faced skepticism about my solo backcountry hiking in Alaska. “No picture, no proof.” Photography solved that problem. Since then, that knack for documentation has bloomed, wintered, and bloomed again. I now define my photography as having two distinct themes: Comfortable Isolation and the Aria. I have been mastering skills but also crafting my art as a cameraman into a vision that is personal and wholly my own.

I am recording from what feels like the bottom of my empty well. Here in the dark, I look to recharge and plant my seeds. Even from here in my very same yet significant and meaningful ways, I can dismantle the patriarchy and take on white supremacy. Don’t be afraid. You are not alone, this is a collective darkness. Wake up, we can give what we don’t have, only to realize that we had it all along… yah I know, it is easier than it sounds though! It will all make sense once you give yourself the time to recharge in this darkness. You know what’s up but sometime we forget with all the noise, listen in and listen up.

Get your art practice into a state of prolific flow.
