I photograph in fog in various unrelated locations. Elements of fog and haze act like portals to the transitory quality of one’s surroundings, and the insecurity of one’s experience in the landscape. In unclear air, objects lose their finiteness of appearance, and the surroundings occur less permanent or solid. Borders become obscured and the horizon hidden, removing the context within which one normally associates objects, and impelling an experience of boundlessness and uncertain perception. Fog creates separation, and when no longer bound to their surroundings, things appear as they are. But they too can seem less ordinary, isolated within the landscape in which they normally exist.
