CAROL COLBY TANENBAUM
Photography offers the viewer the opportunity to see objects and people through my eyes, and then create their own stories.
In my abstract work, I take subjects out of context, and by changing their color and/or perspective, I hope to bring the viewer’s eye to the sensuality and complex rhythms of an ordinary object. When I photograph individuals, it is the unguarded moment that I search for, to show their vulnerability and strength.
