shadow box installation

After finishing the shadow boxes with their images intact, I had to decide the best way to present them. I knew placing them at average standing height would make them easy to pass by and the intent missed by my audience.

So I built these steps up to invite the viewer into my space, my history and some of the more intimate moments I have captured on film to date.

The installation went over incredibly well and the steps got people looking into the box, 

stabling themselves on the wall with their hands, really getting into my small boxes and experiencing the space as intended.

I couldn't have been happier with the outcome and interaction from all who came.

The Villa

Following the previous fiber print, I had unlocked the secrets of the zoning system 

and honing my sights on a specific aesthetic.

Black Brick Road

This is one of my favorite fiber paper based prints, that really struck the chord for work to follow. It was the first photograph taken that I could feel the pull of the direction I had been looking for; stark contrast and looming nostalgia.
