Untitled (Saudade)

I explore the ephemeral feelings of desire, which move us to daydream and wonder about the nature of things.

The resulting photographs are carefully depicted moments…those that occur before and after the fact. Meanings of the images are open-ended, for they are merely a catalyst with the intent of helping the viewer fill the gap with their own search for the object of desire in an endless amount of possibilities.
