Exhibitions of my work have included series of images that represent distinct narratives, and which are informed for the most part by my interest in storytelling, cinema and its relationship to photography. These narratives are drawn from a variety of sources. The Hills, is a series of images loosely based on a short story by Hemingway.

These images correspond not only to the physical spaces of the house in which the untold drama takes place, but also, and to a greater extent, to the unexplained emotional or psychological distance between the principle characters.

Finally, each work is in and of its self a narrative, but each is also a part of a larger over-arching body of work that is supported by every individual effort or new work. More specifically, I see each story forming a larger story that continues to reveal itself in a variety of forms, be it in a photograph, book or video.
