ROBERT SINSKEY STATEMENT
"If you had told me as a wide-eyed college student in NYC that I would someday run a winery, vineyard and farm for almost four decades, I would have said you were nuts. I was restless and I needed to move. I had my sights set on becoming a photojournalist, armed with a press pass license to live many lives through my subjects; to constantly put myself in challenging situations while shining a light on humanity’s rights and wrongs. I believed one image or one photo essay could change the world. I was inspired by the masters – W. Eugene Smith and his heartbreaking story on Minimata, an essay that forever changed corporate responsibility and the environment. The many war images of Robert Capa that put us on the front lines and changed the way we perceive the human cost of conflict. Mary Ellen Mark, with stories of teenage homelessness in the Pacific Northwest that brought us into the lives of the forgotten and discarded. Dorothea Lange and Arthur Rothstein (who also happened to be my senior thesis advisor) and the indelible dust bowl images that graphically illustrated the cost of ignoring nature’s rhythms. Then there were those who celebrated humanity, like the whimsy of Elliot Erwitt, the decisive moment of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Smith’s Country Doctor and one of his final images of children walking from a dark forest into the light; “The Walk to Paradise Garden.” These icons approached photography, a craft of beauty, with a POV to enlighten; to have an impact and instigate change."
