Greg’s completed his graduate work at New York University and the
International Center of Photography. His photography is connected to the

international torture survivors make self-portrait photographs that are then
woven together into a quilt.
Greg spent much of his time in the last decade exploring to the
epistemological shift from analog to digital photography. At the end of

long collaboration with physicist Mark Woodworth. This work is represented
