Artist Statement These images have no people in them, yet they are peopled. An open door, an unmade bed, a stairway that turns a corner all suggest that someone has been there. The signs of human presence haunt apparently empty spaces. The light filters through the angle of an open door into the room beyond. A curtain falls in folds to the floor diffusing the sunlight as someone imagined it would. A stairway descends and turns a corner. Patterns emerge, created by light and shadow and the chance arrangement of things. With my camera I try to capture these glimpses of life. |
