Peter Emerick
My work is about seeing and about looking, the basis of Photography. Ansel Adams photographed the landscape of America, Robert Frank photographed the soul of America, I am photographing the traffic cones of America.
The subject matter is amazingly different but the intent of the artist is the same. To focus on the chosen subject and explore it in order to discover its similarities as well as its differences. To find out how the world around us speaks to us. This is how it speaks to me.
