Terry's first geographic adventure was out to the sand dunes just north of Palm Springs.
He found this place to be a dichotomy of people: one set basking in a verdant oasis and the other set struggling in a city that was barren and dry. He was immediately taken with his surroundings both geographical and societal. In the Fall of 2009 Terry moved to Palm Springs from Minneapolis. He may have previously directed performers onstage into great configurations and stage pictures, he now collaborates with the four elements: Wind, Water, Earth, and Fire. Terry Hastings discovered photography after years in the theater and performing arts. The sensual details of this Water series are both crystal clear and beautifully distorted, remininding us of a Southern California childhood growing up in swimming pools.
