Artist Statement:
The Afterlife Portraits consists of 20 images, each consisting of two elements: a human body and an architectural space. The subjects are people who have influenced me and left a lasting resonance. This resonance is the afterlife that the person leaves in my memory. The associated architecture is the place with which I associate them most strongly. The portraits examine the relationship of photographic to digital imaging technology and the manner in which the digital image is defining new ways of interpreting visual information.
