Submission Photography

The Unity of Opposites

This series of photographs is, at its core, a meditation on the dichotomy between normal and strange and the nature of our compulsion to categorize and qualify aspects of reality. What began as a curiosity with one set of opposites, evolved into a fascination with contradictions in general. In attempting to pinpoint and capture both the everyday and the anomalous, I found them to be deeply contingent on each other; the existence of one demands and influences the existence of the other. Our understanding of reality seems to hinge on defining things by what they are not and by situating qualities on scales of opposition.
