Amish Horses

ARTIST STATEMENT

This image is from the series Animals Are Outside Today, which examines the essence of our connection to, as well as our fragmentation and increasing disconnection from, the natural world. I began this project looking at fake nature, wondering what these substitutions for nature satisfy in people. Looking deeper, I began photographing real animals and how they can be both a tangible link to a world far from the reality and pace of contemporary life and an intangible link to a deeper world of instinct and rawness.

The work explores simulation, consumption, destruction and reconstruction, as well as notions of endurance and the reality of loss.
