Excerpt:
“I want to immerse the viewer within the daily happenings of the environment I am depicting. It might not always be flooded, but you see the indicators of fragility and vulnerability. You see how close the water is without it necessarily splashing over you in the form of a grand wave. It’s less of a journalistic project, and more of a lyrical documentary, and I think that’s more effective in a lot of ways. It’s important that people learn to read and interpret all types of images for themselves, rather than relying on a National Geographic report.”
