Exhibition: Ends of the Earth

This was an exhibition of thirteen photographs, shown in Seattle in September 2025, drawn from three expeditions to the polar regions: Antarctica, Svalbard, and East Greenland. The title was geographic before it was anything else (these are places at the literal ends of the planet, after all) but it was also about the extremes of what those environments ask of you as a photographer and as a person.

Very few people will ever visit either pole. I wanted to show what it actually looks like out there: not the postcard version, but the specific quality of light on glacial ice, the behavior of animals that have never learned caution, the particular visual logic of environments that exist almost entirely outside of human reference. Thirteen photographs is a narrow window into all of that. It was enough to start the conversation.
