With my camera, I explore as an archeologist of memories and myths. I look for evidence of secrets, to tell stories of magic, mystery, love, loss, and memories of things never seen.
I make opportunities for the unexpected by using antique and plastic lenses, to create evocative, soft-focus images. Working in black and white, I transform the present into reflections of the past.
My photographs suggest fictitious memories of moments and places as imagined, as if I am the first to discover them. The images are of what is not there, but for me. - Elizabeth Greenberg
