| These photographs follow in a long line of those who have used a substitute likeness for men and women in their artwork. I've used 12" action figures in constructed scenarios to form a meditation about the uncomfortable subject of death. This project has been produced using a digital camera not for the advantages offered by Photoshop or other like software, but for the absolute control that the digital image affords the studio photographer. With the ability to see what Ive just photographed, Ive been able to make minute changes in pose, lighting, and overall composition and design. This would never had been possible for me to accomplish using film-based photography. As a result, these are for the most part unretouched, unmanipulated photographs. These images are part of a continuing series called "Tableau Vivant". They are available as 20" x 30" inkjet prints. |
