About the Item

You an Orchestra You a Bomb explores the photographer’s relationship with life itself. It is a series about paying attention to and appreciating the fragile present. You an Orchestra You a Bomb captures moments of awe, makes icons of the everyday, and looks at life on the threshold between magic and disaster. Cig has always experienced the world viscerally but after a traumatic event, a raw heightened awareness of the temporary nature of life permeates this new work. Through breathless moments of beauty, her images propel us to fathom the sacred in the split-seconds of everyday. Cig's photographs are interwoven with her intimate poetry in this hauntingly beautiful series.
