Artist Statement
I am fascinated by the random arrangements of public gatherings. As my crowdspotting series evolves, I become better at identifying opportunities: a crowded tourist attraction, a busy intersection, and a packed subway car are all opportunity-rich environments. I look for animated characters within separate groups of people who—absorbed in their own moments—are often completely unaware of the contribution they are making to the larger scene.

What's Up With the Rectangle?
I use an obscure, film-based wide-format camera with a field of view approximately the same as human vision. I print my photographs at least six feet wide.
