The Person Behind the Archive
I capture images on film, record sounds from real environments, and produce intimate music in a small home studio. My work lives at the intersection of observation and creation — a quiet practice of paying attention to the world.
The photographs come from wandering — through cities and coastlines, forests and forgotten places. I shoot almost exclusively on 35mm film, drawn to the grain, the unpredictability, the physicality of the process.
The field recordings are gathered with portable equipment, capturing the textures of places as they are — wind through pine trees, distant train horns, the particular silence of an empty room at dawn.
The music grows from these same impulses. Working with tape loops, simple synthesizers, and whatever instruments are within reach, each project is a small, contained world pressed onto cassette or vinyl in limited runs.
"Everything here is made by hand, in small quantities, with attention and care. This archive is both a record of what I've noticed and an invitation to slow down and notice too."
Camera
Primarily Nikon FM2 and various point-and-shoots. Kodak Portra and Tri-X are the films of choice.
Recording
A pair of small-diaphragm condensers, a portable recorder, and patience. Every sound is captured on location.
Music Studio
A 4-track cassette recorder, a few synthesizers, an acoustic guitar, and a room with good natural reverb.
