dc.descriptionCapstone contains the artist's statement, a list of works, and images of works.
dc.description.abstractThe artist's statement: I have always been interested in the idea of the unreal. The illusion that something is happening but could never be true. I have Salvador Dali to thank for that. My work directly relates to the dreams we have and the nightmares that we fear. Sometimes I wish the things I dream of could happen, but most times I am more curious of what my dreams would look like in real life. So I create them. I want to portray believable scenes that may have a different meaning for everyone. To me, my images all connect in some way. And to others, each piece could tell its own story. During my final semester at CSU, I have been able to truly explore the ideas of the subconscious mind. It has been a thrill, a rush, and a stressful experience. But, creating these scenes that have only existed in my mind has created a sense of satisfaction that I did not have before. With photography, I was immediately drawn to the way that C-Prints looked as they came out of the color processor. They contain a subtle glow that an inkjet print (in my opinion) cannot reproduce. At the same time, I have a passion for manipulating images in ways that are almost only possible in Photoshop. I struggled to be happy with my images over the last few semesters because I could never truly explore the process that I wanted to. It was either one or the other. So, I found myself stuck between a rock and a hard place. Do I choose to make prints that I love or images that I enjoy? Luckily I found a technology that could literally do both, and it's called "chromira printing". These images are printed from a digital file on to light-sensitive, color paper. The prints display the glow of a C-print while containing the subject matter that I desire. Long story short, I found my process and I will continue to push its limits.
