Mixed Media Assemblages:  Always attracted to ambiguity, we began to use mixed media assemblage as a way to achieve a more expressive experience with the subject of our images. Using our own personal additions was irresistible. In the same way that we slowly peel off the layers in life to reveal different truths, we are adding layers onto the surface of our photographs, in order to build up these mysteries and complexities. We can also convey fragmented moments of time and our personal perceptions of internal realities by constructing or deconstructing the surface of the photograph. Within each project our work is separate. Although our methods are different, the process for each of us begins with our own original photograph.
