Artist Statement
Joel was a life long fine art photographer. His first camera was a Polaroid he won playing Bingo at age 13. He was a man of few words and communicated through his photography, inviting you to see the world through his eyes. He primarily photographed landscapes until 2008 when a trip to Beijing, China inspired him to photograph people in uniforms. This led to his final, and most creative, series called Iterations. The Iterations are life size, multi-media and sound activated.
