Homographs

Contexts shift and merge,

Meaning bends, meaning rewrites.

The space between breathes.

Inspired by combinations of symbols in the english language that hold multiple meanings, without context or perspective there can be no understanding.

We exist in ambiguity and nuance. Meaning is not singular but fluid and contingent.

This sequence unfolds in a linear narrative, each images serving two diptychs—connecting with the preceding and following image.

This visual haiku provokes thought about how we interpret the world.

This was my membership portfolio submission for Soho Photo Gallery, which was accepted in February 2025.

Consecutives

Consecutives offers us the opportunity to consider how one thing always follows the next.

Being made with an Olympus PenF camera with the original gothic F, unique vertical viewfinder and a double-stroke film advance,  serial number 294255 - these diptychs (and longer runs) are all made in-camera, permenantly placed in sequence on a strip of light sensitive film.

This provokes a different mindset while photographing; it isn’t enough to concentrate only on the image at hand.  There are no “throw-away’s” for fear of ruining a sequence. What came before and what comes next always has to be considered, or not.

This project continues to inform - and is still very much in progress.

My Instagram Grid - The End of How It Started

This is my instagram feed, which I started 196 posts ago back in 2020 with a picture of the Playland sign welcoming visitors to the pool, beach, boardwalk and amusement park in Rye. This coincided with the relaunch of this website and one of my first Galleries here - Reflections of Me: Playland.

The sign, like my desire to use instagram the way i was no longer exists. I may start to post more to promote contnet produced here on thnis webiste and promote exhibitions and other things. So for now, you can always enjoy this long scroll here.
