I’ve always felt like an outsider. Life to me remains perplexing and remote. It seems to always be accompanied by a detached sense of unease, impermanence and isolation.
When I create images, I want to capture my memories of moments when I felt like an explorer in this distant world, submerged in these alien landscapes. It is in urban scenes; backyards and streets, that I feel the greatest sense of discovery. Like in photographs of the Apollo missions, there is a stillness that exists in the moment of discovery. And in this stillness, all at once, the infinite and ephemeral can be felt.
“Feeling Gravity’s Pull” is an exhibition of works that explore these fragmented moments of daily life. The figures and objects that appear in these scenes a reminder that we are all celestial bodies floating in space, bound by gravity’s pull.
