Solar Fruit Dripping After Rain
“Twenty years ago, I lost the use of my left eye due to an infection. Doctors said I might lose sight
in my right eye, too. Grasping what had happened, a
switch flipped in me. Priorities shifted. Within a matter of weeks, I left my life as a professional musician and re- focused my attention on seeing everything I could while I still could.
“Paradoxically, blindness set me on a course of looking at the world in a way I had never experienced before. My right eye enables me to see the external while my blind eye reveals things hidden within. I sometimes develop these ideas into constructed realities and other times I simply photograph real life as it unfolds.”
