Photography helps me define my life. I’m rarely without a camera and find myself an opportunistic photographer, documenting what I see rather than studio work or things set up in advance. I move between photographing people on the street of nearby cities, events (Women’s March NYC, Diner En Blanc, NYC Dance Parade, Pride March) to photographing the scenery of the Harlem and Hudson Valley. I recently participated in the 2025 24 Hour Project, joining photographers worldwide in taking a photo hourly, editing it and posting to Instagram
Experiments with Camera Obscura fascinate me and include installations both with a tented camera obscura and in homes and studios.
Starting in 2016, inspired by the mail art of Ray Johnson, I began a yearly practice of designing a postcard and inviting the public to modify the cards and mail them back to me. The many postcards I’ve received back from my co-creators (many are strangers) have resulted in a remarkable assortment of responses.
