Badlands + Tumbleweed

Badlands Series. Archival Inkjet Prints, Mounted to Diebond20 X 30″. 2008. 
Exhibited in the Greater MPLS Exhibition at the Soap Factory.

With this series of images I am presenting the geographic terrain of badlands as a place of transience; a heterotopia of such which has no room for habitation. While other work to date remains void of the figure, the Badlands Series introduces the human figure as mere guests in a natural phenomenon; they seem at once like toy soldiers, moveable and placable at the will of an external hand. In this way, the introduction of the figure becomes as vacuous and devoid of agency as the vacated places of earlier photographs.

Untitled – The Longest Days Are Those Without Memory. Installation with Tumbleweed and High-Velocity Fans. Installed at the Soap Factory.

There are preciously few people that I actually enjoy being around. My friends Haley and Matt just happen to be two of them. As you know, I normally hesitate when taking photographs of others of my species, however, shooting these two was rather enjoyable! They’re starting up a new food/restaurant/dining blog… details to follow soon!
