Snippet #2

Photography.
I seek within the ephemeral exoticism of photographs, a meaning unapparent within the oxymoronic obscurity of the indelible, all-too familiar literature I study.
I seek to capture, through this medium, transparency. Hoping the untainted, pure glass lens will filter the world's flaws, melt away the gloss of it's superficialities and capture a world more understandable, more knowable. 
Photographs are transient, printed memories - easily forgotten or faded with time. If a single photo represents a single memory, an album constitutes a printed human mind. In that case, my mind lies on a rotting mahogany bookcase... I need never wonder where I lost it.
