About Nelson...

Nelson's background is eclectic - a moving canvas. The short 8 minute video above explains it best.

Nelson's work has taken him across the globe. His works have been shown in the U.S. and abroad, including inthe United States Senate Building and in a show that celebrated the influence of Ansel Adams on contemporary photography.

Currently Nelson is working on a large project called ENEMIES, in which he is photographing people from opposing sides of violent conflicts around the world. In addition to photography Nelson works in a variety of other media including music video and street art. Nelson has also created works under several anonymous pseudonyms.
