My subject matter are the medium-specific characteristics of photography, and its framework - light, reflections, three dimensions expressed within two. The work is about looking, seeing photography, and at the same time experiencing one’s own perception. One's own perception may be realized through the reflexive presence and constructions in the image. The construction of the image is always visible, deliberate. My investigation of photography is not ridged. Rather my process may be seen as a semi-science, a form of ‘romantic mathematics.' The cannonized regiments of photography are hard to escape, but easy to negelect. I aim to enter the sublime, through amateurism.
