INPRINTS

Lately, I have been fascinated by impressions/imprints that people leave behind in the world, literally. What makes these impressions interesting and special to me is that they are temporary marks.  The marks stick around just long enough to be noticed by someone, but are easily eroded away.  I started a collection of photographs that captured these beautiful moments in time...

My obsession for POP-UP Books and the Graphic Arts:

Example of how music impacts moments in film:

I found that with fashion, photography follows. It is what allows us to become intimate with a particular piece of clothing that we may find nonexistent in our closet due to cost. Also, a photograph creates a sense of foreplay. It allures the viewer into a dream world that tickles our fancy to fake our way into something that just might mimic the "real" thing.
