I am interested in exploring how to communicate a sense of place beyond what individual photographs can. How does one combine sets ofsn apshots into a single image which progresses beyond conveying a simple visual record to expressing the psycho-geographical landscape? Having been raised in a rural town in northern Arizona, Times Square was (and is) both fascinating and intimidating to me. I've had the experience of sampling its evolution over the past 25 years during visits to New York City. "Witching Hour" and "Ex Cathedra" are stylized composites of twelve photographs of Times Square, taken at different times and locations. Even though Times Square has been cleaned up and made tourist-friendly, you can still sense ghosts and fragments of its previous incarnation, late at night when the cacophony of sights and sounds blur and blend together and time becomes illusory. |
