Zen Walking

Zen Walking focuses on small, fleeting shifts in familiar surroundings, often along routes I pass through every day.

I am interested in the moment when something familiar loses its usual certainty through light, weather, movement or a passing glance.

While walking, I do not look for a predetermined subject. Repetition and a slower pace make me more receptive to the unspectacular. I pause only briefly to make a photograph and consciously leave room for chance. Photographing remains incidental to the walk; only the later selection is deliberate and precise.

I leave the specific locations unnamed. The images do not explain these moments; they leave the familiar somewhere between recognition and uncertainty.
