Artist (he/him). My abstract photographs of leaves, shells, flowers, ice, and seeds reveal a wilderness that can be found right outside our doors. danielsroka.com/hello
Here’s one more photograph from my latest exhibition “Collecting Shells on the Beach”. See it in full at danielsroka.com/exhibit5).
Even on the coldest day of winter, I can pick up a shell we collected last summer, and still feel the grit of the sand and smell the salt of the ocean.

While collecting shells, my sense of scale shifts from the vast to the small. I start to notice how much nature is packed in all around me.

Searching for shells lets me experience the shore in a new way. As I comb the sand, my perception changes.

When most people collect shells, they hope to find whole, perfect ones. But I prefer the broken ones that have been dashed against the shore. These shells have stories to tell.

My latest exhibition of abstract photography recreates the feeling of sitting on the beach, lost in thought, with a shell in your hands. You can see the full exhibition at danielsroka.com/exhibit5.

Made some soup. Now watching the snow and playing a board game. A good Sunday.

I’m starting a new project, working with shells my family has collected from down the Jersey shore over the years. It’s a lot! So, my first step: organizing them, and looking for patterns and ideas.
