Cocoon Series – Gallery Talk

Please attend my gallery talk and reception on Thursday April 14th from 6-9pm at Zephyr Gallery.

The Cocoon Series is 12 photographs. They are part performance and part photography. I would climbed into a tree, tie my cocoon to a limb and crawl inside with a flashlight. Then Natalie Biesel would compose the photograph and tell me when to the flash the light.

The entire series was shot in Cherokee Park between the days of February 11 – March 17, 2011. It was a fast and cold series of shoots. On one shoot in particular I was sure I was going to die. Either from falling out of the tree or from Natalie who was tired of trudging around in muddy water at night in freezing temperatures.

Please come to the talk to hear more stories about the shoots and how the series was created.
