About the photographs
I photograph moments that feel uncertain and in-between. By combining reflection and transparency within a single image, separate views exist together. What appears familiar can suddenly feel unresolved, opening a space for different ways of understanding.
I am drawn to fleeting encounters, fragments of landscape, gestures, weather, and movement, and to the way perception shifts while looking. These photographs are less about documenting a place than about experiencing a moment of attention. The images hold recognition and ambiguity at the same time, inviting viewers to move through them slowly and make their own connections.
About Chris Gould
Growing up in Buffalo, I worked summers in a tool factory making metal parts. I explored the industrial landscape with my camera, combining a love of old factories with reading on history and biography. Later, I attended the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), where I spent countless hours in the darkroom learning the art and craft of photography. I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photo Illustration. After moving to New York City, I opened a studio in the West Village and completed many editorial photo-illustrations focused on the subjects of science, technology, and information. My practice now integrates photography, miniature set-building, sculpture, and experimental furniture design. I live in the Hudson Valley, where I’ve built a home and studio shared with my wife and family.
