The Sublime: Mermaid Food

2018

A collaboration with Venezuela Blackshear, a dear friend whom I have known for years and during a transitional emotional moment in her life asked to become part of my series, “Mermaid Food”, a photo and video series I had created in 2015 during my own moment of major emotional and life transitions. She flew up from Tennessee for a week and this is what we created. For her, it was the first time being in front of the camera for many years. For me, it was my first time revisiting a series that was birthed from great darkness during a second major emotional life transition. Together we created something that inspired us to push forward with new paths in our lives, thus entitling this series “The Sublime”.
