On Fire Drive

Daniel’s first Imaging project, Fire Drive, began in 2019, and explores Northern California’s skateboarding sub-culture. Through this body of work, he revisits his memories from childhood, re-experiencing his life from the feelings in the past—which began when he started visiting the skatepark when he was four years old, the same environment shown in the images. Much of the commentary within the project also speaks on Hispanic Demographics within Rural Towns, as well as themes of Masculinity and Emotional Environments.
