Paper.

I received a package in the mail with one large piece of packing paper. I immediately knew I wanted to use it in a self portrait shoot. I put it in the closet for safe keeping and one Friday night, turned my living room into a studio and shot hundreds of photos. I love the texture and aliveness of the paper. I love the way that it reflects the light. These images seem at the same time futuristic and ancient. Here, I am the object for the paper to take shape around - to work its own magic. It was a dance and each time we moved, it seemed to knowingly and organically fall “perfectly” into place.
