Photography is innately constructed. The tension stemming from the essential ambiguity of an image removed from time and space is the raw material for “First Impression,” where I amplify this relativity. I believe that our eyes and minds gravitate towards gathering visual information from photographs to then create a larger story. A strewn teddy bear in a picture might resemble an astronaut according to our previous knowledge and experiences. I aim to invite the viewers also through the specific architectural installations of the photographs to observe the images more intimately. The response or rather, the responsiveness of the viewer is what grows into their own story. The askew angles of my camera and the off-beat framings contribute to the inherent tension and ambiguity in the images.
