Thesis Artist Statement


I’m going to illustrate an aspect of my life that is hard to put into words. There is a meaning behind what I see that only now am I beginning to understand. It involves my fears, faith, and beliefs – and my questioning behind all these things. I think that a big aspect of this goes back to my unique view of death, and as I’ve been figuring out lately, my fear of death.

In this project, I’m trying to find the connection between my new realization and my lifetime’s worth of experiences. Is there a connection? Why does this all happen? I’m trying to make sense of all of the chaos in my head. It’s not all pretty, it’s not meant to make sense, to most of you it will be confusing, and maybe you’ll deem me crazy. For me, I’m creating this as a journal of sorts, to categorize and make some sense to all of these questions.

Thesis Thesis and more Thesis

Here are some of the initial shots from my thesis. While I do like these images I'm sharing, I'm not sure if I'm going to continue in this direction with it. I want to keep the same artist statement (which I will be posting shortly) but from a different photographic approach.
