Being a participant in the story of the land around me is the muse for my art. More than that, nature is my conduit to understanding my emotions, as well as my knowledge base for my role as a human in the wider world.
As a result of this, my photography is a direct extension and reflection of my own life. I wish to create an emotional equivalence between the human experience, and nature’s hidden language by bridging that barrier through my art.
My wish is to convey a simple yet powerful message – there is more to nature than what is viewed on the surface. We can discover deep metaphors that are mirrors into ourselves, as well as conduits to a deeper understanding of the world around us.
Sincerely,
Jason Pettit
