While the subjects in her work are not quite as unrecognizable as i am striving for mine to be i can definitely appreciate the idea behind her work and it is my goal to push that concept a little further.

Jennifer Martin
While doing some research on the internet to find some inspirtation for my thesis i came across the photographer Jennifer Martin. She describes her work as, "abstract nonrepresentational photographs, comfortable in their ambiguity". I believe this sentence really speaks to my own work as well. Here are some examples of her work:

I do see a lot of similarities between what she is going for and what you are going for in your work. The main difference that struck me between you two is that Martin seems to set up her scenes before photographing them, I can see what looks like fragments of wood, tile and paint. I am wondering if you have thought about setting up something to shoot rather than going out and looking for specific things. This may be something to experiment with and see with method you like working in better.
