Photographic images. Narrative storytelling. I especially love to study the human face. We all have eyes, ears, noses, hands, ears. We all understand the geography of the human face. Every face is distinct yet every face is a Rosetta stone that bridges languages, cultures, governments and religions. Faces conjoined with a story are the key to unlocking the minds and hearts of people all over the world.
Where do you find inspiration?In the faces, voices, gestures, emotions, dreams and aspirations of the humans I encounter every day.
What would you do with $25,000?Make more art that touches more people, and that captures the fundamental truths of what it is to be a human being. Tell more stories that resonate across cultures, across borders, maybe even across time. Stories that everyone understands.
