My art is a confluence of disciplines: photography, poetry and science. It serves to save species and wild nature.
By using archetypal, cultural and ecocritical theories, my writing helps me to integrate confessional elements of my own life and struggles.
Photography is essential because it serves as a record of my observations of the natural world in order to transmit beauty and teach about life history.
Science enables me to deep dive into ecosystems to understand the way they function, into particular species like jaguars or pumas to understand the intricacies of their adaptations and behaviors.
All of these disciplines merge and spin. Beauty matters. Nature restores.
Art keeps me trying to find meaning amidst chaos.
In the end, there is jouissance, a pure aesthetic, a pure joy that keeps me inventing new ways to interpret that world.
