wrapped in time

i photograph places that are wrapped in time,
places where one can sense the presence of history.
my work is about memory and how memory is 
diluted, and sometimes lost.
in a place like venice one can see the passage of time
in the worn steps, the crumbling architecture,
the stained mirrors, the inscriptions on buildings.
we sense the past everywhere, even though 
we are living in the present.
these connections for me are visceral.
i feel them, sense them 
and with my camera want to record them.
