Dane Pollok works with the malleable nature of photographic meaning to explore ideas of identity, belonging, place and time. Utilizing the image’s intrinsic allegorical qualities, Pollok visualizes the emotional and psychological terrains that emerge from the experience of being in a particular environment. He sequences portraits, landscapes and found moments into open-ended narratives that invite the viewer’s own perspectives and interpretations — an image is fixed, but its message is not. What results is a conversation with the observable world and a practice of using its visual cues to spark deeper understanding and connection.
