creating the image you visualize
My intent with photography is to create an emotional reaction where I draw the viewer into the image. Ideally, I would like to grab them emotionally even before they can respond to the “thing” of the image on an intellectual level. Without the reference point of “what the subject is”, they can then let go and visually explore an image. They are able to experience the image on a gut level and create any personal meaning for themselves from the inside out."
