why and how

 

     My Theory


    Imagery has always been central to my life. Heightened, possibly even seeded, when I tried vainly to convince my first grade teacher the front door of my home was really, really, really, blue!


     Somehow, the blue door on my still damp watercolor didn’t match her own vision of reality.

 

     Building images upon visions, whether by word/by image/by sound, or simply written quietly, has guided me down many paths - one meandering path I kept returning to was of a somewhat quirky film editor, filmmaker, and writer/producer - all the while/all the time, lookin’ out/in for those spaces “between”. 

". . . There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in"

Leonard Cohen, Anthem

     My photography is a seemingly random game of scattering wee bits of silence into each image. Those who recognize this stillness, are invited to refill the space with personal meaning and stories.


Once, I was told: 

". . . you have the ability to find and express the calmness and depth of a

Zen garden in your visions of the mundane"


Carl Tassi, vocalist
