The initial inspiration for this series came from looking at photos of artworks that showed more than they intended to show. I.E. 'bad' photos of art. I'm interested in developing a visual metaphor, I guess my visual metaphor, for how the conscious surfaces from the unconscious. The paintings and their backgrounds can symbolize either place, and I am trying to create interesting or poetic tensions between references to imaginary and real space. 'Real' insofar as photographic space is real... I photograph artworks professionally for a living. If you want to know more about Studio Lux, click here.
