Liminal Topographies
2013-Present
Formerly titled “Spirit Land/Ghost Country”, this ongoing series documents my travels and encounters with landscape – mostly involving Western and Central Washington State. When we experience a place, we are creating a reality that synthesizes our sensory input of an objective space and the inner psychic conditions our consciousness projects into it. With these images, I hope to communicate an impression of that liminal, non-ordinary reality that the viewer might engage with that spirit-of-place.
