"Douglas Beasley travels as a seeker, not as a tourist. He makes photographs not as a reaction to the otherness of people, places and cultures, but because of a feeling that exists deep within himself.
His destinations in the world are connected by his photographs which give visible form to invisible maps of the eternal. And these images are often of ordinary unnoticed aspects of reality - miraculous imaginings of beauty, suffering and longing of the human body, mind and soul. They become maps pointing to our original mind and various incarnations of earth spirits.
Douglas uses beauty in his photographs as an opening--a doorway which leads us to an open window of love and gratitude for what he sees and experiences--love and gratitude that deepen our awareness of what IS.
His photographs do not rely on spectacular light, weather or drama but upon humble revelations of the miraculous. And although his images often document degradations of land and people, they also inspire and move us toward deeper appreciation and understanding of our place in the world; our responsibility to observe and see the past--and therefore our present moment--more clearly and compassionately."
