My work focuses on questioning and redefining the representational boundaries of the photographed image. I am interested in (mis)representing space by using light as an active sculptural force. The projected image has proved to be an ideal vehicle to explore these concerns.
I seek to confuse the viewer with my images, not to let them make sense of the spaces which are represented, but to push and pull on their perceptions and force them to look deeper into the picture. A particular sort of deception is inherent to photography. I attempt to explore this deception by constructing architectural situations out of slides. I try to make the viewer aware of the way that photographs tend to compress three-dimensional scenes into two-dimensional representations.
This interest in using projection as a sculptural means has led me in an installation oriented direction. The use of spatialized projections, in conjunction with the movement of video-generated images is intended to create this same sense of disorientation while providing an environment for the viewer to physically interact with the artwork.
