I met with Emily today, my professor/advisor, and I believe we had a pretty deep conversation about the meanings of my work. I am still not ready to open up quite yet but I think I am coming closer. When I asked her what she saw in my images she nailed it on the head - a sense of emptiness, the feeling that something or someone is missing.
Tomorrow we are going to print out a 22 x 30 inch digital negative and make a huge cyanotype. I am so excited to finally get this thing going.
Emily introduced me to a new artist - Edward J. Steichen. Wow. I can truly say that his works & ideas behind his works are so close to mine. I will be researching him in depth to see if I can get more ideas.
