I make photographs of what surrounds me, filling in the interstitial spaces of photojournalism, street photography and fine art - without privileging either form. I believe something fabulous resides in the ordinary.
My influences are many – photographers, musicians, painters, writers, etc. Presently living rent free in my head: Gordon Parks, Avedon, Van Der Zee, Brigitte Lacombe, Warhol, Basquiat, Norman Lewis, Fan Ho, Ansel Adams, Keith Jarrett, Laurie Anderson, Joni Mitchell, Bill T. Jones’ “A Good Man”, Miles (of course, Miles!), and Isabel Wilkerson.
