For nearly twenty years I have held a deep and abiding interest in ideas about place, history, time, perception, representation, and personal experience. In the broadest terms my work is a combination of scholarly and historic research, creative expression, and personal narrative. I like to think about my fields of exploration as starting with my own internal experiences and moving out from there in concentric ripples in time and space. Whenever possible, I prefer to work collaboratively on complex long-term research projects with students and colleagues in fields that range (so far) from the Visual Arts to Humanities and the Natural Sciences. My creative practice is grounded in photography and digital imaging, but I increasingly work in other media.
