Honorable Mention
Lost
DESCRIPTION
We traveled across California and Nevada documenting a character we created who is constantly lost and trying to find her way home. We covered her face to create a loss of identity so that people could find themselves within the character. We are lost and looking for something. AUTHOR
We are an artistic couple whose work explores the connection between painting, sculpture, and photography. We use plywood and paint to construct sets for each of our shoots that are filled with whimsy, bold colors, and optical illusions. Our work is really a marriage of our separate backgrounds of fine art photography and theater/set design that we have been able to mold into a unique form. We enjoy creating situations for our models that blur the line between reality and dream world. Our shoots are about exploring what the world is like with your eyes closed while shining lights on emotions of frustration, confusion, and exhaustion created by our human experience.
