Infrared light is invisible to the human eye. I reveal this band of the spectrum by using filters that isolate infrared waves from visible light. Long exposures are necessary, bringing time into the process. Ripples in the water disappear and the leaves, grass and clouds blur, but the land remains solid and sharp. Using techniques that I have been developing over the last several years, I capture the essence of the surrounding landscapes. I finish my work in black and white, giving the viewer a surreal experience with the landscape. I present my work not as a record of a place, but as an invitation into my imagination. My infrared landscapes are parallel worlds that exist just beyond the limits of human perception.
