Rider Before the Storm2025 · Archival pigment print 101.6 × 182.9 cm

A body of work about distance. The slow red miles between storm and shelter, made on film and hung like paintings.

Statement

Each photograph is printed large, framed by hand in walnut, oak or old barnwood, and shown the way a museum shows a canvas: one plain wall, room to breathe. Some hang bare with a white border. Walk slowly.

From the catalogue

“The pictures don’t hang on the wall so much as open a window in it: onto heat, dust, and a light that’s already leaving.”
