The Barrier and The Bridge

At an intensity most people cannot fathom, observation is not a technique; it is a way of inhabiting the world. To look deeply is to enter a state of stillness that modern, transactional photography actively works against. To see and to feel simultaneously requires burning that barrier away, converting the camera from a shield into a bridge. When a photograph is taken from this state of presence, it becomes the natural, inevitable byproduct of a deep interaction with the world.
