And There I Find Myself Waiting

About the Item

Archival pigment print Signed and dated by the artist 16 x 20 - edition of 10 20 x 30 - edition of 5 Flickering in the Midday Silver Beyond the pane a glimmer, barely perceived yet still it draws my gaze. A flickering in the midday silver. A calling from me to you, who is always leaving. In the space of just a few short weeks in the Spring of 2024, I lost both my father and my brother, one was expected, the other not. This body of work was made soon after that time whilst on a residency in Italy, in the first week I had to fly home for the second funeral in two months. During this time, I threw myself into my writing and photography, trying to process everything and find my equilibrium. I was still reeling, trying to regain a foothold, to reassert myself in a world where I felt the walls were crumbling. But as I soon discovered, grief isn’t linear. There is no moment when you finally come to, get over it, work it all out and come through the other side. I’m still there, managing from one moment to the next, feeling everything just as keenly. It is the physical intensity of this sense of loss that I wanted to capture in these photographs and in the writing that accompanies them. How you feel loss in the body, in your stomach and on your skin, how you become acutely aware of the fragility and the terrible tenderness around you. It is about the futile, but unavoidable and ongoing attempt, to hold on to love, even after you know it has already gone.

Homage
Located in Los Angeles, CA
These images are available as hand-pulled polymer photogravures, made with bone black and warm sepia inks on Hahnemühle Copperplate paper. Edition of 109 7 x 9 photopolymer gravure Signed numbered and dated by the artist. The photographs and poem that evolved into this series of photographs and the accompanying book “Yesterday” were made during the summer of 2020. Although much of the country was in the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic, on this remote island off the coast of Maine, we still felt free from much of the toll that Covid was taking. Able to spend time outside, in nature, we had the illusion of safety, of normalcy almost, whilst at the same time being painfully aware of how the virus was increasingly touching everyone's lives. By then we all knew of people who had died, or become ill and we were managing the stress of futures shifting and plans that had been derailed, fearing what would come with the change of the seasons. That summer represented a pause in time, a moment where life could feel normal, when we were still holding on to a world of yesterdays. Maine-based photographic artist and writer Sal Taylor Kydd uses various photographic media in a personal narrative that explores themes around memory and belonging; combining her poetry with alternative processes of photography and object-making. Taylor Kydd’s fine art photographs have been exhibited throughout the country and internationally, including Barcelona, San Miguel De Allende, Portland, Boston and Los Angeles; and she has been featured in numerous publications, including Shots Magazine, Don’t Take Pictures Magazine, Lenscratch, Diffusion Annual and The Hand magazine. She has self-published a number of books combining her poetry with her photographs. Her books are in private and museum collections throughout the country including The Getty Museum, Bowdoin College, The Peabody Essex Museum and the Maine Women Writer’s Collection at the University of New England. Taylor Kydd’s latest book “Yesterday”, produced by Datz Press, is a limited edition book of poems and photographs that explores our sense of loss around the pandemic of 2020. Taylor Kydd is also a veteran workshop leader and educator and has led workshops and conducted portfolio reviews throughout the country and internationally with Maine Media, Santa Fe Workshops, Palm Beach Photography...

Antonio Lopez Biography - The foremost fashion illustrator of the 1970s and 80s, Antonio (as he signed his work) was and remains one of the most highly regarded and influential figures in the fashion world. While not initially known as a photographer, Antonio was rarely without his favorite Instamatic camera, and as his career progressed he turned increasingly to photography to create fashion stories, portraits, and elaborate mise-en-scènes. A serial Svengali, as the writer Karin Nelson noted: “Lopez brilliantly transformed the women in his world. Under his tutelage, Jerry Hall, a long tall Texan he met at Paris’s Club Sept, evolved into a golden goddess. He put Jessica Lange in gold lamé evening dresses after discovering her in Paris studying mime, and gave aspiring model Tina Lutz her start (and an introduction to future husband Michael...
