Snapshots from One Twelve for 01/16/2024 -

I just adore this image; I love that it is like a mad convergence of The Last Supper and a female-gazed, body-positive Dove Real Women ad. The women sitting at the table appear utterly self-absorbed and unselfconscious as they gorge and play. Perhaps the passage of time has made it possible for me t...

Traverse no. 9: Kayhan Jafar-Shaghaghi

Excerpt:
In contemporary photography, a rare breed of artist exists, one who effortlessly marries the tactile beauty of traditional film with the ethereal world of the imagination. Kayhan Jafar-Shaghaghi, a Persian-born artist, now calls Edinburgh, Scotland, his creative sanctuary, where he weaves the threads of history, culture, and personal experiences into striking 8x10 film images that speak to the soul and provoke deep introspection...

Poignant Portfolio no 48: Pam Connolly

Excerpt: At the beginning of 2023, I had the pleasure of participating in LACP’s photo reviews. Although there are some obvious limitations to reviewing work online rather than in person, it’s still great to meet new people and see new projects that are unfolding. One of the projects that struck a chord with me was Connolly’s “Wishmaker” series and the Landau Gallery project.

Kintsuge Altarpiece: original photography with found photos, maps, and book pages torn and collaged onto birch panel, finished with cold wax medium and mended with gold leaf

New Poignant Pics out today. This time, Diana Nicholette Jeon has featured Linda Plaisted's mixed media work, Kintsugi Alterpiece. It's personal for Plaisted, because in 2020 she learned that her ancestors had owned slaves. Since that time, she has created two bodies of work that seek to lift the voices of those harmed by her ancestors' actions. The work is a stunner. Take a look.

What does one do when, as an adult, they learn the painful secrets of their ancestral history? Linda Plaisted learned the answer to that and shows us via savvy use of materials.

I no longer recall where I first saw Kelly Ciurej’s Artifical Sweetener series, though I remember I thought it was quirky and fun.
