As a child I heard a man’s voice whispering my name as I walked through my family home. I knew that he was not unfriendly. He did not frighten me. I told my mother about this and with her background as a psychic medium, she decided to do a house clearing. With her ability to access the spiritual realm, she tuned into the energy of our home. She discovered the existence of the spirit of a World War II soldier, stuck in between the mortal plane and the plane that lies beyond.
I often show my mother my photographs and watch her search for signs of spirits within the confines of the image. This interaction has inspired much of the work I make today as I embark on my own journey looking for signs and meaning that exist beyond the naked eye. Like my mother, I find myself photographing spaces that I am energetically drawn to. My camera mediates my curiosity and my attempt to understand the world and the oddities that exist within. My photographs explore the other-world within the context of my world, brushing up against the inexplicable.
