Thank you for selecting my Whistler Mom photo in the last artist challenge
For the next artist challenge, I've chosen Carrie Mae Weems
Last week I was at the National Gallery and accidentally stumbled upon a room containing Weems' kitchen table series. I flipped over it. It's a collection of 20 photos, all taken at a bare kitchen table that tell a story of meeting a man, heartbreak, having a child, having friends. The photos had no titles, but didn't need any to tell a story. Some were in groups of three. They were interspersed with short written pieces that added to the sense of viewing the inner life of the woman.
Some of her work is very political, other work is very personal, much has an element of poetry
+ Only photographs taken on or between these dates will be chosen for voting by your peers. Take a photograph that is in the artist's style, or emulate a certain work, or simply be inspired by Weems' work. You may process your photos to emulate the artwork or stay true to your own style of processing.
+ You may enter more than one photo. In each case, however, I would appreciate very much if you would include a link to the photograph(s) that inspired yours.
Also, I encourage you to post your entry/ies in the comments section below to keep this discussion active and to inspire others. To do so, simply click on the button on the right of the star button at the bottom right of your photo’s narrative, copy the Embed Code and paste it on your comment here.
