I’m happy to have my Goldwater project featured on the Prison Photography. Writer and photo editor Pete Brook, created the blog in order to, “To bring to attention things previously unsaid,” and, “To joust in the melee of contested meanings in surveillance, fine-art, documentary, amateur, institution, and virtual photographies of prisons and other sites of incarceration.”

RISC Group Show

I’ll be participating in the RISC training program at the end of the month. RISC, Reporters Instructed In Saving Colleagues, is an intensive battlefield medial-response course that is provided free of charge to freelance journalists who work in conflict zones. I’m humbled to be participating in the program along side experienced photojournalists and reporters and to have the opportunity to show my work at the Bronx Documentary Center.

NEW YORK EDITED

Photographs from my Roosevelt Island project along with 15 of my fellow students from ICP last year are in a new book titled New York Edited. The publication is a collaboration between photographers from ICP PJ program (NYC), class 2011/2012 and editors from Ostkreuzschule für Fotografie (Berlin), class 2012/2013. It’s printed by Pepperoni Books (Berlin).

A documentary project that I worked on while attending ICP last year was published on the NYC news-site, Gothamist. The project focused on the lives of two men who were paralyzed in similar diving accidents and are now best friends, living in the State-Run Goldwater Memorial Hospital on Roosevelt Island, NYC. 

I wrote an accompanying article that details the planned closure of the hospital to make way for a major university science and technical institute, and highlights my subjects’ dissatisfaction with their planned relocation.
