Sophie Barbasch – Fault Line

Sophie Barbasch Fault Line Fault Line is a project I am doing in the small coastal town of Brooklin, Maine. The protagonist is my younger cousin Adam, who lives there. I also photograph my brother, father, and other cousins. I chose the title because a fault line alludes to where the earth splits in an …

Catskills

Day 5 – visual diary by Theo Stanley / nyc @theo_stanley Morning light and subtle color describe the gentle beauty of New York state’s Catskills park. I grew up in the high elevation arid mountains of the state of Montana, which has dramatic scale, and is severe and temperamental, so this softness and intimacy of …

White fance

Day 4 – visual diary by Theo Stanley / NYC @theo_stanley Images can have a visceral affect on my body. We are now bombarded by imagery, and counter-intuitively, it has not been a numbing experience for me, but rather one of greater sensitivity, with further awareness of the consequences as our mind and body receive …

Day 2 – visual diary by Theo Stanley @theo_stanley The light in nyc has its own rhythm based on the season, the particular neighborhood and color palette, as well as the height of the buildings that cut and reflect the sun. Most of my time during the week to give to photography is being out …

Self portrait

Day 2 – visual diary by Theo Stanley @theo_stanley Terminal light. Self portrait. It’s annoying how the word selfie has muddied the amazing history of self portrait work in photography. Self portraits can be documents of age and time and place, but also can be more conceptual interior views, searching for equivalents in images that …
