Miles uses the camera’s aperture as a doorway into a world of possibilities exclaiming, “Each artistic endeavor is built upon the four pillars of my identity. Each pillar bound within its own duality.”
Working as Director of Public Safety at MassHousing, Miles has always had a long engagement with people and the community addressing quality of life issues, so it’s not surprising that one of the four “pillars” explores People & Community.
The 365 Project also explores the “pillars” of Family & Ancestry, Faith & Spirit and Nature & Landscape each evolving at their own pace while remaining a work in progress. Miles explains: “My intention is to share a deeper experience with my audience with exhibits that focus on each separately and more intensely.”
What began as a personal dedication to increase a level of skill in his photography has now led Miles on an intimate journey to reveal a shared terrain of natural beauty. The 365 Project captures a moment in time each day, which Miles posts regularly on his blog - http://thaddeusmiles365.wordpress.com -inviting the viewer to keep an open mind and interpret the image in our own way.
Nonetheless, each of the four pillars does in fact remain a very intentional exploration into the self. Miles says, “I become a cartographer of sorts - not merely documenting, utilizing photography to help me navigate my personal and public history.”
