Losing Cape Cod

I have lived on Cape Cod for nearly three decades, long enough to watch the familiar become unfamiliar. Houses disappear or are remade beyond recognition. Working landscapes give way to other uses. Water redraws boundaries. What is preserved, what is replaced, and who can afford to remain are constantly being renegotiated.

Losing Cape Cod examines that transformation without pretending it can be stopped. Loss is certain. But loss is not always disappearance. Sometimes a structure remains while its meaning changes. Sometimes preservation alters the very thing it intends to save. Sometimes what appears ordinary becomes evidence only after we realize it is gone.

The photographs move between landscape, architecture, evidence, memory, and metaphor. Individually, they describe what was there when I looked. Together they ask what it means to watch a place become something else while still calling it home.

Presented here is a selection from the larger body of work.
