These are living projects.

Sometimes a subject begs us to bear witness when no one else will. Sometimes we add just one set of eyes to an ocean of others

and it still doesn't seem like enough... yet we keep showing up to witness and to work.

These are my ongoing observations of evolving circumstances and subjects.

I am growing parallel to these projects.

These projects are mostly built from my personal observations recorded primarily as photographs and journal entries. I will periodically update these collections with new images and notes, so check back. I do not know how these projects will come together but they will grow organically however I see fit when I feel there is something to add and maybe one day they might transform entirely. For now I am only obedient to the call to create in these directions.

You can also receive photo essays straight to your inbox by subscribing to my Substack @NTLNWMN where you will find even more scribbles about my life and philosophy on these topics and more. There is nothing extra behind the paywall on Substack, but if you want to directly support these stories, becoming a paid subscriber helps sustain my effort to tell them and supports any nonprofit/grassroot efforts I believe are relevant.
