From Macro to Micro and
IN THE BETWEEN

I have always been fascinated by how far I can see, the direction I am looking and what it would take to get there. Google Earth’s satellite images show me far-off places I cannot go. In my work, I simultaneously explore both these distant places and extreme close-up and microscopic worlds; noting the commonalities between these vastly divergent visions. I connect these macro to micro perspectives with images taken from my iPhone photos. Looking up, looking down, looking inward and outward––I’m always searching for an engaging way to show the interplay and balance between these views.
