Artist Statement:
In 2004, I worked on a
portrait series of women.
These women were strangers
before photographing them for
this series. They responded to
my online posting calling for
females of all types to
participate. Each was
photographed in their bedrooms
in natural and/or ambient
light. This project provided
the opportunity to meet women
of many different backgrounds
and to capture a part of their
lives. My camera was a
passport to enter places I
might never have otherwise.
The process was an immersion
into a woman's life and
molding it to make it my own.
They are depictions of how I
want the women to look - with
a sentimental mood and
intimacy, both diffident and
confident. Her disposition,
space, objects, clothing,
makeup, and colors were used
to create a milieu of
sexuality, wonder, hope,
nostalgia, loneliness,
independence, resignation,
intent, anxiety, and peace.
The women are sharing a
secret: I want them to be
cherished, and then let go.
All images are traditional
chromogenic photo prints,
20"x20" (image size) and each
are framed in unique shadow
boxes. ...
