New moon over sea

This Master’s Report is a discussion of the ideas, research, and methods I have developed over the course of my three years of study at the University of Texas at Austin. As an artist I am interested in queering the convention of photography and rethinking the idealized landscape. I use photography to transform subjects, shifting their significance and worth. Throughout this report, I discuss my image “New Moon Over Sea” as a microcosm for the themes and ideas present throughout the past three years.
