Unseen is a photographic exploration of identity. Growing up in the Midwest during a time of conformity, I was caught between wanting to be recognized and wanting to keep my head down. While this work begins from a personal place, the questions it raises about who we are and how we’re seen are universal.
Photographed within endangered public lands in Northern California, these images are made in low light, where shadow and faint illumination co-exist. The landscape becomes a space for reflection: on belonging, perception, and the subtle ways we exist, and sometimes disappear, in the world.
