About the Item

This is Untitled #2 from the Nature of Particles series. The Nature of Particles series consists of abstract photographs of ordinary particulates, that we observe in our everyday surroundings as floating fragments seen in shafts of light. My Nature of Particles series allows a safe distance for one to contemplate both positively and more recently, negatively, what could be happening below the threshold of unaided human sight. I capture the particles in motion. These tiny spheres seem to whirl in unseen eddies, roil in orbits, settle in spots and move on to circulate on invisible flowing currents of air. I use this commonplace occurrence to explore interesting visual possibilities that might remind us of a starry sky, or finely stirred deep ocean sediment or even as a visual immersion within a stream of flowing bubbles. The “Nature of Particles” series consists of 30 photographs created in the artist’s studio in New York during the winter/spring of 2020. Captured with digital media, the final photographs are produced by the artist in limited editions on museum-quality archival paper.

The images engage physics, mechanics and creative thinking that often evokes an innovation process.
