This series began in Lucca, Italy where the atmosphere is consistently serene. While soaking in all of its tranquility, I found myself searching for the tension that is always present in New York City.

I found that tension in the pigeons. I became intrigued with their behavior-the frenzy and beauty of their flight, their violent greed in groups and their peaceful loneliness, their repetitive and sporadic movements.

This series continued when I returned to Brooklyn where I was still entirely intrigued with expressing the chaotic behavior of the pigeons, although in the city we all search for the hidden tranquility. In Brooklyn, I found that in their shadows.
