Sealth Images

The Sealth images represent the oneness of humans and the environment. Sealth is more commonly called Chief Seattle because Sealth was unpronounceable by non Native-Americans. Chief Seattle, in the photographer's opinion, best expressed the Native-Americans' oneness with the environment. The Sealth images use digital imaging techniques to create combinations of scenics and the human form often creating anthropomorphic landscapes. They are embedded in mountains, rocks or waterfalls; clothed in wildflowers or fall colored leaves; or floating as ice sculptures on wilderness lakes. The participants in the Sealth images are anonymous, amateur models who are in keeping with the spirit of the natural, secluded areas.
