The Waters of Utopia - Romantic Wanderer Series #45

Inspired by German Romanticism. I have been working on this project for 2 years - it is a continuous body of work and I can easily see myself devoting the rest of my life to it.

There is so much to say, yet, about man's presence in nature and/or his disassociation with it. It is also a self-portrait, a study of my own romance with nature and the emotional impact and the devastation I have felt on my travels - the sadness and the disrespect for nature. Yet, there is still wonder and amazement for some.

Throughout this project, I have taken my figures and placed them in various ecosystems. This segment was shot in the swamp waters of Florida.

I am on a quest to hunt for beauty.

Thank you for allowing me to share my vision.
