woman with arms raised to sky

 Statement A wonderful mentor once told me: “It is better to aim for the stars and drag your feet in the treetops than to aim for the treetops and drag your feet in the mud.”  Aiming high and dreaming big is something I learned early on in life.  I grew up in the midst of… [Read More]

Journey to Impurity: Fighting Against Menstrual Restrictions in Nepal

Posted on August 22, 2021

Statement In Nepal, and according to Hinduism, the entry into adulthood is tied to a loss of purity.  In some rural areas, menstrual women are exiled for a week, a practice known as Chhaupadi Partha. When they are on their period they are not allowed to enter their houses, visit the temples, attend festivities, cook,… [Read More]

Statement The preface to Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray is a series of aphorisms about art and beauty, including the declaration that “all art is at once surface and symbol.” If all art is at once surface and symbol, I create symbolic surfaces. Through the use of photo-collage, still life, and re-photography, my… [Read More]

Project Statement At the height of the AIDS epidemic experimental drug treatments lead to the invention of modern antiretroviral medications that keep the virus suppressed, but these drugs would have never become available had there not been individuals willing to receive them on an experimental basis. This body of work titled Hard Breath Volume 2… [Read More]

Our Mothers’ Gardens

woman's arms raised

Project Statement During this past summer I was feeling a bit detached from photographing myself. This was a result of social unrest and the pandemic. In June, I went back home to Alabama for a couple of months to be with family. I spent a lot of time between my Grandmother and my Mom’s home,… [Read More]

Between Two Worlds

Posted on December 20, 2020

Statement While in the throes of grief I sought to visually express what was so difficult for others to hear. I had suffered a traumatic loss.  In addition to grief, I was experiencing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which resulted in severe brain disfunction. My brain simply could not make sense of my new reality, I… [Read More]

Hidden Realms

Posted on October 18, 2020

in the field

Statement This series is inspired by my poem ”Hidden Realms”. The setting for many of the images is a fairytale landscape whose inhabitants are clouded in ambiguity. The ghostlike figures are reflections of the later years when beauty and youth begin to fade. They embody the feeling that one is becoming invisible and yet still… [Read More]

Going Away from Here part one

long walkway to house

Statement I have spent the last three years photographing Tangier Island off the coast of Virginia in the Chesapeake Bay which is progressively being claimed by the waters surrounding it an average of nine acres every year. Tangier is projected to be uninhabitable in 50 years if nothing is done about it. When the residents are forced to… [Read More]

Memento Vivere- Remember to Live

Posted on June 13, 2020

Statement Memento Vivere- Remember to Live My recent work expands an ongoing investigation of the interaction of memory, the passage of time, and of identity. I am keenly interested in how memory forms our sense of being and how that can be affected by the contradictions that the past and the present pose. In the… [Read More]

Home Sweet Home

wall decoration of 3 cranes

Statement I first became fascinated by the complexity of the home as I observed rows and rows of old Dutch colonial structures, while working on my first book, Pabean Passage. These old colonial structures showed a distinct East-Indies architecture, an adaptation of European architecture to the tropical climate of Indonesia, which gained its popularity in the mid 18th… [Read More]

Floor Plan

Amy Rindskopf's Terra Novus

At the market, I pick each one up, pulled in by the shapes as they sit together, waiting. I feel its heft in my hand, enjoy the textures of the skin or peel, and begin to look closer and closer. The patterns on each individual surface marks them as distinct. I push further still, discovering territory unseen by the casual observer, a new land. I am like a satellite orbiting a distant planet, taking the first-ever images of this newly envisioned place.

This project started as an homage to Edward Weston’s Pepper No. 30 (I am, ironically, allergic to peppers). As I looked for my subject matter at the market, I found that I wasn’t drawn to just one single fruit or vegetable. There were so many choices, appealing to both hand and eye. I decided to print in black and white to help make the images visually more about the shapes, and not about guessing which fruit is smoothest, which vegetable is greenest.

Artistic Purpose/Intent

Artistic Purpose/Intent

Tricia Gahagan

 

Photography has been paramount in my personal path of healing from disease and

connecting with consciousness. The intention of my work is to overcome the limits of the

mind and engage the spirit. Like a Zen koan, my images are paradoxes hidden in plain

sight. They are intended to be sat with meditatively, eventually revealing greater truths

about the world and about one’s self.

 

John Chervinsky’s photography is a testament to pensive work without simple answers;

it connects by encouraging discovery and altering perspectives. I see this scholarship

as a potential to continue his legacy and evolve the boundaries of how photography can

explore the human condition.

 

Growing my artistic skill and voice as an emerging photographer is critical, I see this as

a rare opportunity to strengthen my foundation and transition towards an established

and influential future. I am thirsty to engage viewers and provide a transformative

experience through my work. I have been honing my current project and building a plan

for its complete execution. The incredible Griffin community of mentors and the

generous funds would be instrumental for its development. I deeply recognize the

hallmark moment this could be for the introduction of the work. Thank you for providing

this incredible opportunity for budding visions and artists that know they have something

greater to share with the world.
