Phenomenal Landscape Experience
I drift with the camera, creating layered images on film while walking through both new and familiar places. These images transcend a static pictorial representation of landscape space creating a sense of movement and time, more closely representing my psychological and physical experiences. Inspired by the playfulness of the dérive and the foundational ideas of the Situationists, I engage in pyschogeographic drifting as a way to detach myself from predetermined agendas in place. In doing so I create a sense of true visceral and phenomenal experience in these images. Breaking the traditional confines of the frame while still honoring the birth of the image within the camera.
