Stockwell became a traveler because he was better at moving than at
staying still. At quite a young age he was encouraged to get
out and "see the world." and he did. Like a hunter
on a great safari,he has spent a lifetime hunting the world,
and most of the time capturing it with photos.
He has always traveled with a camera. Through the lenshe
could capture these other cultures, for just a moment, a click
of the shutter, before moving on. By taking many of these
clicks from the skies above these different places, he'sI tried
to capture a perspective that goes beyond what one can see in
just that moment.
The sweeping views of Rio de Janeiro capture
hundreds of years of Brazilian art, history and culture. The
shot of a Mexican dancer, the smile on her face, tells yet
another story. Timeless landscapes join with historic architecture
to create images that say as much about a place as the people
who live there.
