Artist Statement 
The Delirium Constructions

Most of the images you see on this site are from an ongoing photographic series exploring disassociated characters brought together into the same space. In this series, I examine human interactions with one another and with animals without reference to environmental cues or social markers like occupation, class and revealing context. While most of these scenarios are staged, the emotions that result -- uneasiness, curiosity, sensuality, hysteria -- are spontaneously captured and authentically experienced.

Though these moments may be disquieting, they are packaged in candy colors and starkly composed to disarm the viewer. Like an optical illusion, where the viewer shifts between opposing visual perceptions, these images reference emotional illusion, a rocking back and forth between projection and introspection, between darkness and hilarity.
