In My Dreams

About the Item

Edition of 1 with 2 AP Small Wonders is a series of constructed still life images and text made during the pandemic of 2020-2022. It is the product of countless hours of home confinement. My mind, suddenly unoccupied by the distractions of normal life, was newly free to wonder about the world and my place within it. Housebound with little to do, I turned inward, to contemplate, to ponder. These photographs became a visual diary of my revolving emotional state, little tabletop metaphors for anger, depression and boredom. As time wore on, I came to appreciate unexpected gifts that came my way. Long forgotten childhood memories shared with my sister during virtual visits. The time to consider my mother’s poetry, which in turn inspired me to write my own free verse. I marveled at science, nature and the wisdom of philosophers. Carol Erb is a Los Angeles based photographer whose constructed and staged realities explore themes of isolation, ethics, and human nature. Drawing on the influence of surrealist masters, the artist constructs her images from multiple digital captures utilizing landscape, animals and still life objects. Originally from the Midwest, Carol attended The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, later graduating from DePaul University. Her work has been published and exhibited internationally.
