The Series
Uncontaminated Sound is an ongoing photographic and conversational series centered on artists, performers, and the creative process.
Beginning with candid stills made backstage and around live performance, the project grew from a desire to document the rarely
seen moments surrounding the work: the gestures, exchanges, and personal histories that exist beyond the stage.
Through free-form, unscripted conversations, podcasting, radio broadcasts, and exhibitions, Uncontaminated Sound continues
that same observational approach. Intimate, curious, and intentionally unfiltered, the project creates space for artists to
speak openly about their lives, ideas, influences, and the experiences that shape what they make.
