The congregation of CITIZENs, here in this show, was never premeditated. I didn’t set out to capture any of them, with the greater collection called CITIZEN in mind. They happened over time.

These images are from a broad subject of people I came across over the last fifteen years. There is no narrative, nor a place or topic, connecting these citizens.

Many encounters were random; others due more to luck of having received a commission. What connects them is that they met me and my camera – applying the same parameters in its taxonomic approach.

In CITIZEN you meet an ex prime minister, a prostitute, my wife, a nun, tribal dancers, famous actors, a now dead friend, child sex offenders… and more.
