Self Portrait #7, Collagraph printing plate, 12x16"
The thesis of my Concentration is based in self-portraiture, the varying ways an individual “sees” oneself over time, and how this affects representation. Changing physical traits will noticeably affect representation of one’s self over time, however this pales when compared to the remodeling of framing devices in locating one’s artistic voice. A recurring motif is the tension between stasis and change, and how even iterations of a repetitive printmaking process can reveal idiosyncrasies.

Buchenwald concentration camp was a Nazi concentration camp established on the Ettersberg (the Etter Mountain) near the Etterburg (the Etter Keep) located near Weimar, Thuringia, Germany, in July 1937. The prisoners were used as slave labour in local armament factories.
Between July 1937 and April 1945, approximately 250 000 people were incarcerated in Buchenwald by the Nazi regime. The number of deaths is estimated at 56 000.
My concentration is a visual exploration of how light and color interact in small town and rural environments. This photo was taken at an intersection in a small town and uses exaggerated color and light to emphasize and abstract my concept. It uses the car's lights to create movement and the colors between the warm lights and blue sky to create contrast.
View from Hearst Castle in HDR, Digital Inkjet Print, 13x19"
The thesis of my portfolio examines and nuances the relationship between “separate but equal,” symmetry, and balance. While on a recent a road trip to Hearst Castle the Supreme Court began hearing oral arguments over marriage equality. Later, as I was touring the mansion, I was struck by the Renaissance symmetry of the façade and the interior spaces. Hence, this body of work is an aesthetic response and investigation that seeks to create situations where similar entities attempt to be “equal.”

We were relaxing after a long walk in the park. We saw this boy trying hard to take a photo of his parents who were sitting right beside us. I have tried a bit of cross processing technique here.

Dachau Concentration camp
ENGLISH:
The Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum (Polish: Państwowe Muzeum Auschwitz-Birkenau) is a memorial and museum in Oświęcim, Poland (German: Auschwitz), which includes the German concentration camps Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau. It is devoted to the memory of the murders in both camps during World War II. The museum performs several tasks, among them research into the Holocaust.
ITALIANO:
Con il termine campo di concentramento di Auschwitz Birkenau si identifica genericamente l'insieme di campi di concentramento e il campo di sterminio costruiti durante l'occupazione tedesco nazista della Polonia nei pressi della cittadina polacca di Oświęcim (in tedesco Auschwitz) che si trova a circa 60 chilometri ad ovest di Cracovia.
Il complesso concentrazionario di Auschwitz svolse un ruolo fondamentale nei progetti di "soluzione finale del problema ebraico" - eufemismo con il quale i nazisti indicarono lo sterminio del popolo ebraico (anche se nel campo trovarono la morte anche molte altre categorie di internati) - divenendo rapidamente il più grande ed efficiente centro di sterminio. Oggi quel che resta di quel luogo è patrimonio dell'umanità.
