Artist Statement
Photography by James Baumeister
James Baumeister is a photographer from East Troy, WI. He grew up snapping many photos with the family’s film cameras in the 90s/2000s, but mostly disposables. He has always lost himself in graphic design, painted art, music, etc. but only recently fell in love with photography (~2021-2022). He loves gear and technology and photography involves a lot of both. He enjoys through-provoking photography that creates conflict.
