work statement
Photography has been part of my everyday life as long as I can remember, so much so, that I substitute photographs for memory as words often seem clumsy and imprecise compared to even the simplest of images. My interests are in documenting the visceral world, grand journeys, and the small mysteries we experience daily. I believe images are already out there, they exist, it is simply up to us to frame them.

bio
I was born in Mexico and raised in Texas. Photography is self taught. My BA was in art history specializing in Eastern Zhou era bronze.

This September a one man show of my work will be on display at the Nelson Hancock Gallery in Dumbo.
