Lone BenchLone BenchLone Bench is a scene from Point Lobos near Carmel, CA. It is very symbolism/metaphor rich with its lone bench, deep forest, diverging paths, hollow trunk, and subdued lighting. As edited, it could be an illustration of Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken; “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I could not travel both.” Easy to imagine one sitting on its lone bench and having such thoughts. Example: You the viewer are standing on one path, looking at two paths diverging ahead. The one you select becomes one with the one you’re on, and the alternative gets left in the unknown of the one life we have to live.

Reaching Up To The LightReaching Up To The LightThe Universe In A Tree —

Trees — I'm in awe at how the bio-info encoded in their little seeds is so smart and powerful that it builds strong, elaborate, beautiful, alive structures from the dust of the Earth. And I like how the dust of the Earth was created in stars — what Carl Sagan called "Star Stuff". And then this tree made of Star Stuff lifts its leaves to a star, our Sun.

Stephen Hawking wrote The Universe In A Nutshell, but it's easier for me to imagine the universe in a tree.

Opening:
March 18th, 2016

Reception:

Narratives With Isolation is a body-of-work that currently contains 26 images.  It can be viewed online here

Six images have been invited for display at the opening of Phantom Gallery Oceanside.  They are selected as pairs to emphasize sub-themes within Narratives With Isolation.  The goal of this selection strategy is to emphasize their narrative nature where isolation is only one of the elements that convey the image's narrative; i.e. narratives with isolation, not narratives about isolation.
