Jodi Colella

Certain visuals create moments of feeling and knowing in a ‘place’ deep inside where expression exceeds language.  Like the mystery of deep shadows in the forest; the sense of time and place prompted by broad horizons; or the mood of dappled light.

These instances exist in perception beyond the fact of their real existence.  Each identifies with an abstract emotional location within the subconscious mind; within our perceptions of self.

My aim is to capture these ‘places’ as a happening in time.  A pause.  A point of awareness and reflection.

To convey a universal connection that can be realized by each viewer exercising his or her own personal geography.

To use the landscape as an object of expression for what we know, but is more than we are able to say.
