so far removed, medium format colour film, 2011
a quarry stands as an enormous symbol of the consumption of raw materials by the modern world. these images show the spaces left behind
when the rock has been removed and search to find beauty in the aftermath of a destructive process, for beauty can be found in the most desolate of places.
the subject matter calls in to question the constantly changing topography of our landscapes in order for humanity to build its desired world.
as we dig down in order to buld up, we destroy in order to create.
