This past semester I took a ceramics class and fell absolutely in love with the art of forming and molding a vessel out of the elements of the earth. I wasn't particularly skilled at the wheel, but by the end of the class I was beginning to get the hang of throwing the basic forms.
This quote from T.S. Elliot's Poem has stuck with me since my first reading of
The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock. I would like to explore further taking some photographs that reference works of literature.
Rhonda graciously let me photograph her and her amazing hair :) I started a series of portraits during this semester.
I've enjoyed living in Davis Abbey with 3 amazing friends this year! We were pretty ridiculous and got into all sorts of shenanigans. In these two photos, we were celebrating the glorious sunshine (a rarity this spring!).
I started working on a project about Identity-- I'm interested in exploring further ways we reveal and conceal our true identity, ways that we mask who we are. I want to explore concepts of masks, hiddennes, veiled, uncertainty, questionings, language, communication, limitations, freedom, conformity, autonomy, love, truth, etc. Many of my dear friends bravely let me experiment and photograph them as I process through different ideas and thoughts. Thank you all!
