Subdivided Views
Artist’s Statement:
For many years now I have been photographing the landscape seeking to discover the many ways in which people interact, live and coexist with their environment. This new body of work depicts an idealized view of nature that is fundamental to the subdivisions surrounding South Bend, Indiana.
These images depict my engagement with my immediate surroundings. The wide-angle lens exaggerates the expansive lawns and amplifies the distance between the home and the camera, illustrating the privacy and the quiet isolation embodied in the subdivision.
This project was intended to document north central Indiana; similar images could have been made throughout the United States. The subdivision is a ubiquitous part of society and culture in the United States.

The IUPUI Cultural Arts Gallery, located in the Campus Center Suite 240, is dedicated to educating students and community through the visual arts. The gallery hosts four up to twelve shows throughout each university semester a calendar year which highlight the work of artists typically under-represented in the art world. In addition the gallery strives to raise awareness and appreciation for cultural diversity through the celebration of diverse visual art. Admission to the gallery is free of charge and open to the general public.
Cultural Arts Gallery II is a satellite space of the main gallery, also located on the second floor of the Campus Center beside Caribou Coffee. The space features the work of talented Herron Students and local artists. New work can be seen every month.
