Los Angeles native
Rhett L. Beck
has lived in Frankfort, Kentucky
since the early 1990s.  
A certified horticulturist and
landscape designer in
California, since moving to
Kentucky he has turned to
photography as his primary
medium for artistic expression.   
Influenced by Taoism and drawn to woods and water – “men strive,
water flows” – he uses his camera to record the “art of decay” as
nature works on our built environment.   “I like rust,” he explains,
and through his images he makes us see the unexpected beauty in
the midst of abandonment, to feel the stories and the spirits in
derelict places, where life has been lived.

PERUSING
Images of Peru
"In 2007 my brother married a lovely
Peruvian girl, which provided me the
opportunity to travel to her native land to
attend their wedding.  While there I took
advantage of this chance to see, and
photograph, as much of the country as
possible, including a boat trip into the
Amazonian jungle and, of course, the Incan
ruins of Machu Picchu.  The trip made me
grateful to be an American after witnessing
the severity of third world poverty, and the
violence of life in the cities was shocking to
me, even for a native of Los Angeles!  But I
found that the culture and the people are
beautiful.  The journey was very spiritually
moving for me, especially my time among the
indigenous people along the Amazon.  My
experiences are reflected in these
photographs."
