Poor Possibility / Rich Realization

Selection from Artist Statement -

Photographic technology has fundamentally changed the way we interact with the natural world. As geographic locations continue to develop, individuals seek to utilize the camera's ability to replicate reality in efforts to preserve or reconnect with the natural. This drive to photograph and preserve the "real" perhaps stems from a subconscious fear that the world as we know it is finite and on the cusp of irreversible alteration. With every new image captured, the current boundaries of the natural world become more permeated by technology. Easing this acceptance of degradation, the possibilities remaining of the natural world are whittled down by one, while the alternate universe of digital information becomes one entry richer.
