This piece is available in the Artist Proof edition 4 of 12 In the series Together/Discombobulated I am returning to my favorite and traditional convention of multiple exposure photography in which the layered images are created in the camera through exposing the same frame over and over again - this is not the result of digital compositing. This series is my dialogue with my new neighborhood of Northeast Los Angeles, as seen from the Flat Top in the quiet hills of Montecito Heights revealing a 270-degree view of greater Los Angeles. From this quiet and lyric calm the view of a fascinating and perplexing city emerged with its web of highways, concrete and never ending neighborhoods. It is a disjointed world where cultures and societies are crisscrossing one another, negotiating with one another and casting shadows on one another. This is my portrait of the city from the Eastside.

Above all, I am a storyteller. My medium is the camera, and my dialogue fills the space between reason and the unconscious. I have been an image-maker for over 25 years. I hail from Budapest, Hungary, the birthplace of my photographic heritage in the form of such influencers as Moholy-Nagy, Kertesz, Munkacsi and Frank Capa (who incidentally said: "It is not enough to be a talented photographer, you also have to be Hungarian." By which he meant Hungarian-Jewish.) As an Atheist-Jew turned Theologian turned Spiritual-Gangster, I have always sought the light. It first struck me through the viewfinder of my Russian medium-format camera. I was only 10. Since I can remember I have always interpreted the world through images. They gave me, a childhood dyslexic, a way to engage in meaningful discourse that otherwise might have been denied me. My work is reactive. Profound experience is my trigger. It resonates and is assimilated into the instinctive/emotional/intellectual self. This is where my stories are born. They are seldom linear or narrative, but are always personal, often contemplative, and unequivocally rooted in the collective unconscious. My current collections are such a discourse. It discusses the myriad ways in which the stimuli of my environment in perplexing Southern California affect my instinctual self. In four projects, I am engaging three unique, but related, formal qualities of my medium. Take the mythical vortex that is Joshua Tree, or the concrete pandemonium of Los Angeles. The terrestrial gateway to the “other side” versus the estuary of the terminally unique. Both a cause for a pause.
