“The BAPC artists employ a range of artistic approaches to tap into photography’s unique relationship with both truth and fiction, from straight documentation to juxtaposition, intervention, and fabrication. Together, their work creates a chorus of photographic perspectives exploring the edges of meaning, inviting open-ended interpretation, and moving in tandem towards the sublime.”
— Curatorial Statement by Heather Snider

While Burn Line often focuses on small, personal objects-items carried, used, and held-Lost Landscapes widens the frame. These images offer grounding and scale: the places where fire moved through land, homes, and neighborhoods. They provide context for the objects by showing the environments that shaped, and were altered by, the same events.

All of these landscape photographs were made by me, on site.
Shown together with the charcoal works, they create a dialogue between the intimate and the expansive, the relic and the terrain-between what was carried away and what remains.

Inspiring talk and exhibition by @alexcartagenamex Inspiring talk and exhibition by @alexcartagenamex - curated by @lopesshana 

It was resonating with many issues that I’ve been thinking about for a while in terms of photography that focuses more on concept than creating new images. 

He shared that he hadn’t taken a new photograph in six years and I appreciate that now as a badge of honor
Forbes recently profiled my Pyrotype work and the Forbes recently profiled my Pyrotype work and the ideas behind using fire as both subject and medium. The article dives into how these charred, black-on-black images emerge from a process rooted in California’s wildfire stories.
