Truth and reality are constantly manipulated to suit the agendas of the 
individual. In my images, I am manipulating the truth as an escape from
reality to express my dreams and personal visions of the world. It isn't
based so much on what exists, as it is on what I wish existed - a
constructed representation. There is a romanticized feeling of a world that
is at once full of joy and deep sadness, like something found is easily
lost. A nostalgic longing for a simpler time when the world was full of
innocence. I am not interested in documenting reality. What is reality
anyway?
