When I left my previous job at Pretty Lake in 2024, I spent time at the Pond , exposed three rolls of film, and developed them on site using the pond water. The idea of processing photos in this way had come to me a couple of years ago and I now consider these images to be some of the first in my source:water project.

source:water is a photographic love letter to the Earth. A response to late-stage capitalism and escalating climate catastrophe, I create analog images by exposing and developing photographic materials on-site, using the location’s available water supply and foraged items to create place specific developers. The photos are a collaboration between myself, the land, and the water.
