Jane Fulton Alt
About Me
- Favorite Medium: art photography
- Statement: Night seeps into day,Childhood into adulthood,Birth into death,What is known into that which I imagine...My mind travels over the fragments of our memory,Visions reflected in light and shadow.In my travels I feel a sense of freedom and adventure open up, spaces for the appearance of the improbable and the fantastic, all emerging within everyday sights. Responding to both the visceral and spiritual, I record on film what I see and feel as I travel through life. I am drawn into places I could never have imagined, exploring the universal human conditions of birth, life, love, loss and death. My quest is fueled by a longing to return home.
