SACRED LANDSCAPES OF THE AMERICAN SOUTHWEST

From that trip sprang many trips, and I began to regularly journey from my home in the Northeast to the enchanted lands of the Southwest, where the stunning landscapes and ancient sites continued to awe and fascinate me. As I explored further, I came to learn more about the cultural sites that I was visiting and the Indigenous population's sacred and spiritual connections to them as places of their ancestors. As such, my photographs began to evolve into an homage of sorts, a celebration of the beauty and endurance of these amazing architectural structures and their cultural significance. It is my goal that this sense of respect and admiration is clearly expressed in these images.
