Studies in Organization is an ongoing series of composite image works made from found photographic material of bodies, landscapes, and other archival imagery drawn from Western visual culture. Each work is produced through a single cut: one horizontal or vertical intervention that reconfigures the source material into a composition that almost holds together.
The image approaches coherence without arriving. The viewer keeps looking for the part that will make the rest make sense. That drive, the automatic reach toward coherence, is what the work is interested in.
The series examines how coherence is produced not only within images but through the systems that frame and display them. Organization is not neutral: it asserts authority, stabilizes interpretation, makes contingent arrangements look inevitable. The works make that visible by operating just inside the threshold of institutional display, and then departing from it. Each work is framed individually. Color, profile and depth are decided per piece; sometimes calibrated against the image, sometimes in deliberate tension with it.
