ARTIST STATEMENT
I came to more serious photography later in life following a career in which I was paid to explore and explain the world, using the spoken and written word. So it’s been a joy for me to largely leave words and explanations behind and to just present the world as I see and feel it through my photographs.
In my photography, whether it’s landscape work here at home or more ‘cultural’ work overseas, I attempt to capture moments of beauty and harmony, moments that reflect the order and balance that I look for in the phenomenal world.
‘Seeking Grace’ is about those epiphanies which can happen behind the camera and which, if one is diligent and blessed, may later emerge in the printed image. The work draws from multiple trips I took, with other photographers, across four Asian countries over the last 10 years.
