Remains Artist Statement

REMAINS

The series Remains (2007-12) documents structures that are a part of our industrial landscape. These monolithic subjects raise questions about history, purpose, and permanence in our disposable modern environment.

These photographs were taken in Canada, Spain, Peru and Brazil. Objects tell stories because of what they were and what they are now. Their permanence evokes stories, places, lives, and a way of life that has changed over time.
