In my Mythical Gardens Series, I explore history through photographing what remains from previous eras. As I frame an image, I edit the landscape through my camera and build a protective wall around my discovery holding it pure and independent from the rest of the world. I print these images in gum bichromate, a historic photographic process that allows me to build the image in layers color, creating an illusory veil of dreaminess forcing the viewer to see through the filter of my vision. Each image is unique with its own color variations.
