Zoë Zimmerman
My Orchid

2009

About the Item

The images are created rather than found. There is a rearrangement of the sequence of events that leads to the existence of the image. The emotion (the looking in) is identified initially and brings about the motivation to create the image. An image which illustrated a state of being or an emotional state. These images purposefully raise more questions than they satisfy. They speak of ones fascination with twins. Are we compelled by their difference or their similarity? They address duality. As pertains to the content of the work I have concerned myself with certain states of being which I have experienced. It is a dialogue with the world loosely based on experiences of my child bearing years; a saga of mindful waiting, of containment, of primal elements, bodies of water, growing, thawing, burning. I believe birth and death to be the only true mysteries left and each contains an element of the other. -Zoë Zimmerman Albumen Print, made by hand in the 19th Century style, with chemical recipe and printing method of the Artist's personal design.
