My goal is to present works that blur the imagined borders between the perceived physical entity and its more mysterious underlying reality. In my photographs, I will âhybridizeâ subject-matter---botanical forms with zoological beings, the inorganic or inanimate organic with the animated organic---which I may distort or otherwise manipulate to express the dynamics of life unobserved or unrecognized. I may make allusions pointing to human constructs such as the meaning of time and space, utilizing images from the microscopeâs revealed universe to attempt to cut away the borders between the inner world and outer world, the âinsignificantâ and significant. Through this refocusing of lenses, I hope to create visions of environmental cohesion, of interconnectedness, and perhaps invite and encourage change in the way we approach our relationship with our natural environment and planet.</p></div></div></section></div></main><footer class="w-full py-12 px-6 border-t border-gray-100 mt-20"><div class="max-w-screen-2xl mx-auto flex flex-col md:flex-row justify-between items-center space-y-6 md:space-y-0"><div class="text-xs uppercase tracking-widest text-gray-500">© <!-- -->2026<!-- --> Dana Montlack.
