About the Item

Francois' Animalia series is described as “a photographic menagerie of startling, sensitive portraits.” The series started when the artist saw a giraffe poking its head over a fence against a bright white sky. Francois often takes her pictures about 5 – 6 feet away, with a wide-angle lens from below, and uses and develops real film before printing editions of the work. The animals are often in sanctuaries and rehabilitation centers, reversing the traditional wildlife portrait narrative. Nine holds a Masters of Fine Art degree from the University of Texas at Austin. Her work has been represented internationally in publications such as Communication Arts, Foto&Video (Moscow) and The British Journal of Photography. Her photographs are part of numerous public and private collections including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Wittliff Gallery of Southwestern & Mexican Photography, the New Orleans Museum of Art, and the University of Texas at Dallas collection. Nine currently lives in Austin, Texas where she has taught photography at Texas State University, the University of Texas at Austin and Austin Community College.
