Symbolism
Collection Overview
Symbolism uses images of iconography or basic elements to represent ideas, such as those found within circles, water, or flames. Whether it is the cross, the sun, the color green, or something else entirely, everything has meaning in some way. Since the dawn of time we have used symbols to communicate ideas and meanings. This collection, directly and indirectly, shows images that are more “symbolic” when compared to Moments, another one of my image collections that closely relates to this.
Taking pictures of people and the places I’ve explored helps me make better sense of the world around me. Since 2008, I’ve been collecting personal image collections for my own entertainment. I’m fascinated with capturing moments in time, stylizing them, and letting the feelings that come up form their own narrative. Some of my work signifies or represents larger ideas contained in a certain series for context.
