Fragments

In making photographs, I view the world in two different and distinct ways. Firstly, as a bigger picture, documenting the world as a complex, yet recognizable scene and secondly as a smaller picture, a less recognizable world, detached from a bigger subject.

Fragments reflects my observations into less noticeable places. A bigger subject has been fragmented into small pieces, showing something less apparent and easily passed by. These smaller lesser seen observations bring to life the complexity of our world, not only a discovery but at times a revelation.
