On March 11, 2011, the Tohoku earthquake resulted in 16,000 deaths in Japan and a tsunami wave that destroyed property, some of it making its way east across the Pacific and washing ashore in Oregon. The first of this tsunami debris was an enormous cement dock that landed on Agate Beach in Newport on June 5, 2012. I photographed some of the dock's cement texture and combined it with other photos I'd taken of peeling paint on a fishing boat, paint splatters on docks, and more to create this piece. I particularly like the feeling of time passing in the "sky" and the quiet movement of the dock as it floated along the current from Japan to the Oregon coast.
I'm a photographer, writer, educator based on Whidbey Island in the Pacific Northwest, specializing in photomontage work, combining photos I've taken of rust, walls, peeling paint, birds, postage stamps, trees, etc. into images that are completely new, different, and often weird. I also create physical collages, then find myself photographing parts of them to include in my photomontages. It's crazy, but it's fun! My career has encompassed writing guidebooks (primarily about where to photograph in California), newsletters (guides for photographers about where to photograph in the United States), leading photo workshops, and conducting online classes.
