By utilizing a unique combination of photography and sculpture, Hazard is able to draw the viewer’s attention to what would typically be the more-easily overlooked aspects of his images. His artist statement explains;

“As Walt Whitman wrote in the preface to Leaves of Grass, ‘The greatest poet dilates any thing that was before thought small…with the grandeur and life of the universe. He is a seer.’ My work temporarily removes or alters the viewer’s existing frame of reference to provide an opportunity for a different presence of mind, a distilled frame of reference.”
