About the Item

This listing is for an unframed print. Born in Buffalo, NY, Atlanta-based photographer Shannon Davis has lived in the South longer than anywhere else. She’s asked locals, “How long do I need to live in the South till I’ll be considered a Southerner?” Their answer has been the same, “NEVER.” Controlled Burn is a conceptual photography series that explores the smoldering act of assimilation and the pursuit of finding home. To illustrate narrative experiences she combines familiar objects into uncommon assemblages. The wit and juxtaposition of the art-directed still lifes convey the mood of navigating a new place while offering a reframing of the region from an "outsider" perspective, inviting the viewer to question what is being represented and how it resonates with their idea of the South. With decades of design and motion-directing experience, Shannon Davis chose photography as her medium for making art. She holds a BFA in Design from Rochester Institute of Technology and shares her creative passions as a professor at the Savannah College of Art and Design.
