GOOGLE READER RESPONSE #8

This week I found the work of Anna Schuleit to be very interesting.  Her series "Bloom" includes many images of flora that was planted in a Mental Health Center in Massachusetts.  This whole concept of bring the outdoors to interior spaces is very interesting to me.  The implications of placing these plants in a Mental Health Center has some very inspiring connotations as well.  Her website is very interesting, I'd suggest checking it out!

Another series that caught my eye this week was Robin Schwartz's photos of her daughter and animals.  This images are very different and shows a strange relationship between this growing young girl and animals. I love that these photos have a certain vernacular quality but are still computationally very intriguing.

 

 If you look through the collection of these photos on her website, you can see how the images progress to be more formal in the qualities of light and composition as her daughter, Amelia, gets older.  These images were in the NY Times this Sunday too!
