ARTIST STATEMENT
For the last 30 years I have been involved in conceptual photography,
where idea or vision is transformed by the means of photography to an image
connected to reality only by my imagination. The initial process is similar
to writing poetry. I believe that my work is a visual statement of my life
and my dreams.
