Life Studies
2012-2014

When I visit diorama halls of natural history museums I become completely engaged as I try to place myself within the minds of the creators. The diorama designer, the scene painters and sculptors, the taxidermy artists, and more, all came together to create permanent three dimensional still frames of the "natural" world. Often times when humans observe the rest of the animal kingdom, we project our own emotions onto what is in front of us; when viewing these staged sets, I wonder how much of the artists' own self is cast onto the creatures they are portraying. I try to seek out and capture these anthropomorphized moments and expose them through this work. 
These tintypes were first introduced in Mnemonic Amalgamation.
