Submission Photography

The Alternatives

I use photography as a departure point for creating images that also include overlays of appropriated web artifacts, woven patterns rendered at strange resolutions, and other pieces of digitized information. For over fifteen years I have been investigating the visual intersections of photography and networked computing. This work evolved out of the simple wish to understand and make visible something about the onset of screen culture, and the way photography both saturates and mediates contemporary experience. “The Alternatives” are questions about questions I can’t easily answer. What is the magnetism and sometimes confusion of visual love and longing, and where does it come from in the mind? Who is this person that so strongly holds my attention and heart, and why?

What remains if our precious data is lost?
