Beyond the City

I use the city as my subject, but my purpose is not simply to represent urban scenery. Through the city, I seek to express remembered images, overlapping times, layered places, and the subtle twisting of reality. For this reason, when a work is based on a particular city, I construct it by collaging and superimposing photographs taken from that same place. This preserves the evidence of the location itself while allowing me to create an expression that is unique to that place.
