Description
Numinous and magical, the black-and-white photographs of Beth Moon celebrate nature and our relationship to it as a primary elemental experience. Moon is one of a handful of American photographers using nineteenth-century printing processes, which greatly amplify the spirit of enchantment that permeates her work. "Between Earth and Sky "presents five major series of works produced since 1999: "Portraits of Time," which portrays ancient and legendary trees from around the world; "Thy Kingdom Come," which explores animistic and totemic beliefs connecting humankind and the animal kingdom; "Odin's Cove," the story of a pair of mated ravens living in the wild; "The Savage Garden," which looks at the compelling, sinister beauty of carnivorous plants; and "Augurs and Soothsayers," a series of portrait-style photographs of exotic chickens. This volume is Moon's first monograph. Raised in Wisconsin, she lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
