About The Artwork

This house was being moved from its original location near the road to a new foundation a couple hundred feet behind the original location. It is sitting on a frame of steel I-Beams on a large truck. The gravel in front of it is where the new foundation is being built. The owner told me that it has been in her family for 160 years. The old foundation is crumbling and unsafe, and part of the house was in bad shape, so they cut off that part and moved the rest of the house. You can see on the right side of the house where the other section was removed. This is on the north side of Ohio State Route 2, between the Indiana State Line and Casebeer-Miller Road (County Road #106), in rural Defiance County, Ohio. It is a couple miles southwest of Hicksville. 10-30-17

I am a fine art photographer from Fort Wayne, Indiana. I was born here in 1975; and this northeast Indiana city has been my home except for a year and a half spent in Santa Fe, New Mexico. My work is primarily documentary in nature. I am a historian as well as an artist, and my interest in the past drives much of my work. Photography has allowed me to explore the world around me in a way that few people do. We live our lives surrounded by the evidence of the past. Old buildings stand as monuments to lives lived long ago, and old people are living witnesses to history. Every year, I see the world around me change. Buildings demolished, new ones built. People die while new lives begin. Open a history book, and you'll read hundreds or even thousands of pages of text about the wealthy, the famous, the powerful, the important. What of the silent masses, whose lives are the backbone of civilization? I tell their stories with my photographs and my writings.
