Artist's Statement  
 
Through photography, sound, and other media, my work addresses the conflicts that emerge when a new medium emerges into society and the way in which changes occur in response to this technological change. In this body of work, I use Japan as a model for a world condition.

The series "potogahi" addresses technology and the terror it implies in our evolving society. The "Hospital Bed" series comprises third-generation images of a "death room" in a hospital. These series are part of a larger work that reimagines the emergence of photography in Japan.
