From the Studio — Photography

I've always been known to prefer photographing furniture outdoors for lighting reasons. In public places this can make for awkward glances, etc. But when I then start printing the pieces are acrobats from Cirque de Soleil, then things start to get interesting...

You may soon discover that I have many sideshow interests that inspire my work in peculiar ways. One is my intense fascination with cast off technologies or objects/entities that have been discarded by society. I've been known to photograph old T.V's or furniture laying in the street or rows of old VCR's in a thrift store. I'm basically a Culture Vulture, feeding of what's been left for dead by everyone else. I still see value in the worthless and wonder "What could I make with this?" It makes me start guessing where this consumer coaster is headed.
