Stephen A. Miller

“I am motivated by trying to understand, portray, and produce emotional connections with the viewer through visual storytelling. The building blocks in my work are light, geometry, and psychology. These elements are the way I relate to my surroundings. I seek to create space in which the elements can evolve, be mixed together and distilled - an alchemical process striving toward beauty.”

Stephen A. Miller was born and raised in Portland, Oregon, and discovered photography in his late teens while seeking ways to express himself. Through the past 30 years, he has covered a wide variety of subjects, while steadily becoming more interested in unearthing the human psyche, pointing his lens at the “invisible subjects” in his life and the world. In the last two years he has created several installations using still photography and video, both as solo projects and as collaborations with other artists.

Stephen lives in Massachusetts with collaborator-musician-wife Lisa DeGrace. He is also a free-lance photographer, creating work for the architectural and design community.
