Inner Storms

This body of work is a photographic exploration of the attempt to control emotions through the use of process within a confined space. Similar to abstract expressionist painting, the process and technique are at the forefront of thought during creation, allowing for intuition and chance to help the natural inherent life come forth. The process itself characterizes how I often handle my emotions. They get bundled up and put in a glass box, seen and interacted with from a distance. Ultimately, pouring and dripping color pigment into a tank of water results in lush hand-made atmospheric forms which in turn represent my pervading desire for emotional control.
