Photography
immortalizes the magic of people and places. The flexibility and mobility
of the photographic medium lends itself to spontaneous exploration.
It helps me to create images from transitory, fleeting moments by
freezing them in time. I have traveled and photographed in Africa,
Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. I have also exhibited
and published images from Bolivia, Brazil, Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala,
Honduras, India, Israel and South Africa. In 2001 I received the Small
Projects grant from the D.C. Commission on the Arts & Humanities.
Some of my work is currently being represented by Lonely Planet Images.
In addition to my international travel, I also enjoy taking photographs
of the interesting and often whimsical architecture in Dupont Circle.
The intricate details of the stone carvings adorning the townhouses
intrigue me. I often wonder what inspired these architects and stone
carvers to build such fascinating homes. I started the Intricate Details
project in collaboration with local photographers and architects in
March 2002.
