This image is from Sarah Hadley's series Close, Closer, Closest
Close, Closer, Closest invites the viewer into the interior lives of women through torn, ripped, and painted photographs that hover between revelation and concealment. Fragments of the body meet elements of nature as if skin and leaves, share a single pulse. The rip signifies damage, yet the act of repairing becomes a quiet renewal. Paint, glue and tape binds surfaces, and a new story appears.
Sarah Hadley is a Los Angeles based interdisciplinary artist whose narrative imagery invites viewers on surreal and mysterious journeys where time and space are fluid. Her work focuses on the intersection of memory, identity, history, and imagination.She was born in Boston and received degrees in both art history and photography at Georgetown University and the Corcoran College of Art in Washington, DC. She spent time in her 20's studying and working at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and the Biennale in Venice, Italy, where she first started photographing seriously. Hadley worked at the National Gallery of Art and the Library of Congress and as a photojournalist for a newspaper in Virginia before moving to Chicago in 1996, where she later founded the Filter Photo Festival. During her time in Chicago, she received Illinois Arts Council and Chicago Artist Grants, as well as several Fellowships to the Ragdale Foundation. She collaborated with Susan Tillett, then the Director of Ragdale, on a book called The Ragdale House Speaks, which was published in 2012. In 2008, she moved to Los Angeles to photograph the Time Out Los Angeles Guidebook. In 2020, her first monograph Lost Venice was published by Damiani Editore.
