Outside Looking In

Digital Camera

• Artist Statement

  This photograph was taken near my friend’s house in Oakland. I had just gotten a new camera and she invited me over to experiment with it and take portraits of her. While walking, we came across an abandoned, weathered truck that seemed like the perfect place to take photos. The creepiness from the truck mixed with the overcast sky helped create this eerie and interesting image.

• Creative Statement

  To me, creativity means experimenting and taking risks to show others how I see the world. It means using photography as a medium of communication and finding meaning in ordinary moments.
