A theme of investigation in the environment is a connective trait between several of my projects, including: Light pollution, suburban studies, and toxic towns. The subject matter varies, but the work always shows this sense of inspection or a static visual event, object, or place in the landscape. These works critique our culture and its demands on limited natural resources, inviting a dialogue between crisis and stasis, risk and threat while questioning the balance between the construction and consumption of our environment. Through my images, I am interested in conveying an aberrant relationship between humans and the land because we have changed our natural landscape through settlement, deforestation, and environmental pollution.
