From Elin Spring’s review of Jesse Burke’s solo exhibition for her blog What Will You Remember?:

If there is such a thing as a second chance at childhood, the birth of a baby is perhaps the most hopeful opportunity to re-write your own history. Photographer Jesse Burke documents his sense of rediscovery through a captivating journey with his daughter in “Wild & Precious”, a solo show and accompanying monograph at ClampArt in NYC through November 14, 2015.

Burke’s photographs are simultaneously an ode to childhood and mother nature, a visual celebration of our physical and psychological intertwinings with the environment.
