faculty profile

For the better part of my career I have focused on portraiture, from documenting domesticated animals, “Everyman” across this country, to disabled artists. In my portraiture I prefer to work in a situation that enables me to control the lighting. Another ongoing project is a visual documentation of Americana and the American lifestyle. My perspective, which has been influenced by spending my youth in an Eastern Block country, has given me a unique vision regarding the contemporary American experience. In my photography I believe in a straightforward, honest approach that nevertheless reveals what is beneath the surface.
