Defying Gravity

For several years I have been playing with ideas for a gravity defying body of work. At first my mind went to underwater photography. I researched it, spoke to several models about my ideas and went as far as getting my scuba diving license. But somehow it just was not meant to be. I do not doubt that the day will come (and everyone reading my blog will of course be first to know when it does :-) But in the meantime TJ and I experimented with other ways of achieving this vision and the image I include here is one of the first.

1 desire for defying gravity
3 table spoons of initiative
1 model
1 photographer
two cups of imagination
two 500W studio lights
9 x 20’ muslin

Mix all ingredients together with wooden spoon. Touch three times with magic wand and heat up with small electric heaters for 60 minutes.

I love this one! I'm anticipating the movement...it's "suspended suspension"
