BURN

My current series, Burn, comes from living in the west during 2020. It was constant fires, air quality so awful going outside was prohibited and, due to COVID-19, the only indoor escape was my own home. Climate change wasn’t an abstract concept anymore, it was my ash-covered patio in Denver. Experience became my focus, and so I collected images of the fires, the evacuations, the destruction, but also, happily, old burn areas and their re-growth and renewal. This series is about the world today — it’s mostly on fire, but there is still good to be found.
