I made this website for my images and text and occasional short docs and artist books that I once made and the work I'm making now.
Atlas of Fire is what I now work on. It's a multimedia documentary project that organizes stories about our relationship with fire by location — a map.
I've carried a camera with me through a number of seasons working as a wildland firefighter in the American West. I've had some confrontation with the element itself but more importantly the time out there to think about the human relationship with fire. This project is not about great conflagrations in the disaster sense. It's about the fires that are used in ancient rituals carried on to this day and in the industrial furnaces that birthed our modern ways, for our cooking and our engines of war — told through individual stories that connect to this greater idea that fire makes us human.*
This is everything I made from 2019–2025. The media that I first mentioned, made during the years that I used the camera as a reason to experience and through its lens to confront the world. I left my old life after growing up in NYC and this is where I was and what I did in photographs and writing and experiments in form made across a Montana Winter spent in a home darkroom and organizing photo projects into artist books and editing my three short docs.
