Artist statement (excerpt): “I have spent my life chasing light and the truth of people. I grew up on the beaches of 1970s California, raised on Hollywood physique and on high-contrast cinema — the chiaroscuro of Italian neorealism, the shadow-play of German Expressionism, the film noir of the ’40s, and the charged frames of Helmut Newton… From the boulevards of Paris to the African Savannah, the same eye runs through all of it: the noir nudes, the kiss series, the portraits of Himba and Cambodian families, the lions and the rhino. What binds them is a reverence for the living world and a belief that one honest image can move someone to care.”
