Using a mixture of sculpture and photography, Hyeyoung and I build temporary environments made out of common materials with the sole purpose of being photographed. Sometimes we work separately to contribute to the series, other times we collaborate on a single image. In most cases the environments are destroyed and all that remains to us is the souvenir image

Sometimes images simply go where life leads me. I keep an open view of the world outside while collecting personal pieces of a quiet moment or a subtle surrounding.

I discovered an unfinished swimming pool which gave me a rich environment to explore above, below and between.

Figments are a collection of ink blots on paper that I have then drawn on to create new images. I enlarge these small ink drawings into large paintings and murals.

I make my own pinhole cameras and take them on adventures whenever I can. It can take seconds or many hours to record an image with these very basic and almost primitive cameras. It creates a fresh perspective away from lenses, camera settings, and the multitude of images I am left with when using modern cameras. I have come to think of my pinhole camera as a tiny little eye slowly and quietly burning images on film one frame at a time.
