JON WILBRECHT:

I like to explore novel venues and cultural groups. My camera provides the opportunity to engage with strangers and frame new environments. I have been fortunate to have photographed political demonstrations in the Ukraine, the urban South African environment, and life in the American Mid-West.

I admire the photographers Paul Strand, Eugene Smith, and Charles Sheeler for their sense of drama and careful composition. My goal is to create images which have a formal beauty while accurately presenting a person or event.
