Artistic Approach
While driving across the desert through Arizona’s and California’s tarred tracks, man’s only oases are the occasional shabby motels or gas pumps where the ochre landscape overwhelms the constraints of confinement. I wanted to bear witness to this by sublimating and refining my photographs to give them a dream-like quality. In turn, encounters with these ancient mythical landscapes leave a lasting imprint of grace.
