I came upon photography quite by chance. I was a young college student in Boston when a friend loaned me his Leica. The city had completely shut down that day during a blizzard. It was dead quiet with snow and ice casting a white pall over the entire city. Camera in hand, I wandered the city for the entire day. As I looked for things to photograph, I experienced an almost hypnotic attention to my surroundings. Photography had been the farthest thing from my mind, but on that day I discovered it was engaging me in a way I hadn’t experienced before. Over time photography has become a personal exploration of a fragile world just beyond my grasp. I believe there are images hidden in the shadows revealing themselves when I get out of the way. They are clues to a subliminal world I cannot understand. I keep on nevertheless, always intrigued by what I may find.
