Illusions of Intimacy Stephen E. Strom
a portfolio of 24 images. Recently, I have turned my attention from the macro- to micro- worlds: choosing to image fragments of the desert and seaside beaches that express in their quiet, understated way the same powerful combination of pattern, history and emotion as the grander landscape. Thus this combination of landscapes, sandscapes and sandstone. What I hope to create is what the late essayist Ellen Meloy described as a “geography of infinite cycles, of stolid pulses of emergence and subsidence, which, in terms geologic and human, is the story of the (earth) itself.”

Agaves: Emergence and Transformation Stephen E. Strom
a portfolio of 46 images. The photographs in this portfolio were taken in the days, months and years following the Ryan Fire. At first, fire-scarred agaves provided the only indication of life on the ash-covered hills. I was drawn to photograph them in part to avert my eyes from a scene that could only be called desolate, and in part to create a memorial to a landscape I had grown to love. The transformations of color and shape wrought by the fire created what to my eyes were life-affirming, evocative patterns.
