The photographs in the series, Natural Order, are about the complex, tenuous, and often contradictory relationships people have with the natural world. They express our fear of elemental chaos, alienation from nature, and our attempts to protect ourselves and put ourselves above the natural order. However, these images also reveal our fascination with natural beauty and wildness, and our reverence for the immutable forces of our planet. Prints from Natural Order were exhibited in a solo show at Hudson Beach Glass in Philadelphia in the summer of 2009. The show was written up in the Philadelphia Inquirer and The Philadelphia City Paper. The series was also featured on the popular arts blog BOOOOOOOM! |
