    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.
