I have been photographing spills for over eight years now. Over time I’ve gotten better at noticing these found abstractions, sometimes quite tiny, and I’ve come to know the color/tonality I can pull from the raw image. As with much of my photography, the chosen subject would likely go unnoticed by people walking by.

These images all originated as Instagram posts. I have pulled out the best of the bunch and associated them to each other either as diptychs or triptychs. The paired/triad images were likely shot years apart.

I hope you enjoy this exhibit of abstractions found spilled, splattered, or dripped right there on the street. Keep an eye out, you can find them too!

Most of the subjects in my various “looking down” series are ephemeral in nature… that what I am shooting will likely be gone or changed at any moment.  I enjoy the element of chance in my work; I never know what I will find.  To me few subjects are out of bounds; what might be considered trash to others is for me an opportunity for self-expression and the surprise of unexpected beauty.
