This work is an attempt to photograph light and time together as a concrete subject. The images were made in the field outside the house where I live. The field held stands of red pine before white settlers felled them for ship masts; it has become a place to reflect on the absence of those trees.

Most of these images show arrangements of clear glass against white paper. These are photographs made before dawn and at the end of dusk. As these exposures happen, the quality of light shifts, the sky grows gradually darker or brighter, clouds move, and sometimes I diffract and shape the light with my body, affecting shadows and reflections in the glass. Colors in these images come from ambient light.

I aim to see how many differences, no matter how subtle, can be drawn from this single nearly featureless subject. I am interested in how sustained attention can change the shape the world takes.
