Steve Davis is a documentary portrait and landscape photographer based in the Pacific Northwest. His work is in several collections, including Houston Museum of Fine Arts, and the George Eastman Museum. He is represented by the James Harris Gallery in Seattle.

Beauty can lurk in strange places, and I find myself drawn to landscapes which suggest ambiguity, emptiness, and the spiritually untidy. To me, they resonate as backdrops to stories and dreams—vague suggestions of the earth as a temporary gesture. They are as close to nowhere as I can get.
