EYE ON THE GROUND
A signed and numbered limited edition photography book
"In 2008 after a night of heavy rainfall I shot my first reflection. At the time it felt like discovering a new world and Vancouver proved to be the perfect place to explore it. While most people in this city dreaded the rain, for me, it became a source of inspiration and another way of seeing."
"In 2009 when the season changed and dried up, I tried pouring water on concrete with little success. So I began making my own reflections with plastic, water and food colouring - an act of necessity, not something I've seen before or since. I also made paintings on paper that I would lay on the floor and douse with water then shoot within the puddles of pigment. From there I began noticing/using reflections in all kinds of surfaces and objects."
After 12 years, deliberating between thousands of photos, and countless revisions, this is a definitive collection - the best I have to offer at the moment.
The vast majority of these photos are unedited to any degree.
