Included in the exhibition is my video piece
Wanderlust, Part 7. The work was photographed during the summer of 2007 in Buffalo, NY. In
Wanderlust, I examine place from both a personal and external view by wandering the streets, neighborhoods, pathways, and environs of intercity Buffalo. I also wander through our attic, attempting to connect and comprehend what place means to me on a personal and cultural level.
Wanderlust was shot during the same time as I was developing my current series of still photographs,
When I See You, I Will Show You Our Road. While each project is a separate work, the process and overlap in making the two works inform each other.
Wanderlust is a continuous loop and runs on a 10.5 minute cycle. The video was primarily made with a Nikon Digital SLR still camera in addition to a Canon XL-1. The final work was edited in Final Cut Pro and designed to be projected as a single channel video installation/projection.

Yesterday Jesica and I visited the Carnegie Art Center before the opening to see the video installations. The space is beautiful and the three videos in the main room including mine, (left corner) Chris Ernst (pictured in the middle) and Mili Pradhan worked well together in the space. The curved wall is great.
