Book Description:
|
I had an art history professor in college who once, while discussing Edward Weston's photograph of a pepper, exclaimed: "This is a vegetable in ecstasy!" This notion of photographing inanimate objects with a heightened sensuality struck something in me. Light and shadow can elevate how anything is seen and can create emotion. This set of photographs is an exercise in ecstatic looking.
