Currently I am creating a new body of large format photographs which expands upon my last major body of work. The previous work looked at the suburban condition enclosed by the major road Loop 288 in Denton, TX. The new work covers a larger working area, the Interstate 35-W corridor, from its northern location in Denton, 85 miles south to its conclusion north of Hillsboro, TX. The encompassment of a larger sample region entails a much greater approximation of the generic North Texas condition, codified by the supplanting of urban and rural environments by an extended suburbia. I am documenting this collapse of boundaries as the demarcations are blurring and the spaces we experience today are forever changing due to a myriad of reasons from economic collapse to the expansion of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
