It was a very bright September day on the Fore river and the sun was glistening on the rocky beach drawing my attention to the myriad of strange objects washed up on the shore. I began to photograph anything that looked interesting by holding it up to the sun. At first this was done to capture the translucency of the beach glass but the silhouette’s were just as compelling. My left hand holding up each artifact gave the images an air of worship. I decided I would celebrate the nature of these objects by making something tactile and unusual.
