The Great Beyond

The Great Beyond is a series comprised of hand-crafted planetary models that are photographed. All elements within the picture are in-camera including alien landscapes, accretion disks, planets, and star backdrops. This new work ultimately questions the extension of our reach in both the universe and our imaginations, and the lengths we'll go to to find meaning in our own existence. I've made a thousand of them both as an artistic challenge, and a testament to the vast reality that exists beyond us.
