Michael Hesser is semi-retired from the consulting industry and has just recently begun his journey into the world of art photography.  He is 62, live in Colorado with his wife and two dogs. They have two grown daughters and enjoy a variety of activities, including camping, hiking, traveling, and pickleball.

 

Artist Statement:

My work seeks to uncover the physical essence, eternal personality, and living force of vintage rural images.  By removing all background and context information from my photos, the true nature of a subject is revealed, along with ideas of its history and community.

My beliefs draw from the 19th century poetry movement of “imagism” – which was grounded in the concept that precision and clarity are the pathway to effectively communicating any idea.

My continuing journey takes influence and gratitude from the work of Ansel Adams (scale), Dorothea Lange (humanity) and Keith Dotson (technology).
