| Welcome. I'm a Brooklyn, New York-based artist who photographs the urban and cultural landscape. This site features selections from the following projects:
Lost Spaces, Found Gardens (2005 to present). Color work exploring the Bushwick section of Brooklyn, with forays into East Williamsburg, Manhattan the Brooklyn industrial waterfront, and other spots that I frequent.
Wilderness (1994-2003). Black and white large format urban landscape work. Made mostly within walking distance of where I lived, first in Providence, Rhode Island, and later under the bridges of the DUMBO section of Brooklyn.
Southwest (1988 to present). An ongoing exploration of the old and new in southern Colorado, including Colorado Springs, the Pueblo area, the San Luis Valley, central and southern Utah, and Arizona.
Chicago (1988-1990). Selections from my oldest work, including small camera cityscapes and street pictures.
Please email if you have questions or comments, or if you'd like to be notified of upcoming shows and events.
