Malcolm Easton says, "I collect "found objects" and discarded materials for my tabletop photographs. I focus on objects that potentially evoke narratives or associations. With these materials, I create temporary arrangements that float in the void or reside in imaginary landscapes.  In selecting the items for each image, I juxtapose contrasting traits, the fragile with the strong, the flexible with the rigid. Within each composition, order and disorder coexist. I intend the mixture of traits and the ephemeral relationships to suggest heterogeneity and fluidity within our society, factors that leave open multiple possibilities for the future."

Malcolm Easton has been a collector and tinkerer all his life. Born in New York, he's now a longtime resident of Northern California. His still life photographs center on commonplace objects and materials. His engagement with photography began at age ten when he first encountered a stereoscope.

Since then, he has explored several types of media including black-and-white Polaroids and 35mm transparencies. His technical background led him to digital photography in 2007. Though he works in a studio, he uses only natural light. His essential tool is a handheld mirror that he uses to direct sunlight onto his subjects. Easton's work is represented by Walker Fine Art in Denver.

HANGING ON by Mara Zaslove

Review from curator Susan Spiritus:
"The winning image for me that best expressed the theme, “What Lies Ahead”? was presented by Mara Zaslove, Dispersing the Clouds as she captures her subject emerging into the daylight, coming outside with her eyes wide open, but clearly ’still in a fog’ with the clouds ever present after being inside for so many months.

While we cannot see how the subject is dressed, it does appear that with her hair ‘dressed’ and appearing to be just perfect as she steps out into the sunlight - on her way someplace, with a necklace around her neck, that she is ready to tackle the unknown of what’s to come as she steps foot outside. It must have felt a little strange to once again emerge out onto the streets…But it appears that she is clearly forging ahead in spite of the clouds, the unknowns, that still persist.

Mara: Please fill me in on the background to this photograph. I honestly thought that your photograph of Dispersing the Clouds best fulfilled the theme for the competition. 

Did you set this up after hearing about the competition theme or was it already something that you had?

What is it from? 

While I would love to know what was going through her mind at the time (the model),  I’d also like to know what you were thinking when creating this image.”

Mara Zaslove says, "I am so very delighted to receive your recognition of my image: Dispersing the Clouds!

For my birthday in July, my daughter invited me to visit a camp that she works at in Sequoia National Park. It was the first time that I had traveled since being isolated due to Covid. This locale has always been my sanctuary and during my time there, I was revitalized both physically and emotionally.

The beauty around me begged to be captured and I had anticipated taking in-camera, double exposures with my film camera. Upon noticing this lovely, young woman, I asked her if I could take her photo. The camera was set to allow me to take two simultaneous images so after focusing on her face, I directed the lens to the clouds above.  After developing the film, I could not have been more enchanted with the outcome.

This exercise of combining the image of a person with the natural environment is not uncommon in my practice.  My photos always feel like gifts to myself but when using film (as opposed to digital), there is the added suspense of waiting for the images to be exposed.

This composite immediately leapt to my mind in response to “What lies Ahead”.  It seemed to capture how the circumstances created by the pandemic will have a lingering effect for quite some time and how “clouded” our reality has become."


Additional reviews by past L.A. Photo Curators:

Douglas Stockdale says, “This layered composition is hauntingly beautiful. Her subject is concealed enough by what appear to be clouds, smoke or fog to be an ambiguous as who exactly they are, yet enough details are revealed that we can tell it is a woman. Even what is concealing her is ambiguous and it may be a double exposure with a cloudy sky, we cannot be sure. This 'cloudy' layer introduces some tension, but what ever it may be has a light values and thus does not appear too threatening. This composition raises questions as to what her future might be as her eyes are averted and the current situation is not entirely 'clear'. 

My only issue with the photographic composition is that there is a light cloudy area at the base of her nose, enough to suggest that perhaps she might be exiling smoke of some sort or kind and darkening this lighter section down a tad might reduce this distracting visual element.”
https://www.douglasstockdale.com/

Carl Shubs says, “Living through the pandemic has been filled with uncertainties for all of us. This photo portrays those unknowns as they may cloud our minds, and it also represents alternative responses to them: shutting down and hiding, perhaps with the covers pulled over one’s head, or having an eye open to the future.  That view of the future may be filled with hope and optimism or fear, pessimism, dread, and even paranoia.  Mara Zaslove has presented us with an image that signifies the variety of reactions and experiences we may have in the midst (and her mist) of that scenario."

Michael Behlen says, “Mara’s image immediately reminds me that the future can be cloudy: with our own emotions and with uncertainty about the state of the world. What is also stirs up is that if you look beyond the clouds there is a beauty in being human and living in the moment.”

More about Zaslove:

Mara Zaslove says, "My photographs are entries to my soul, connecting the intangible to the tangible through light, time and memory. 

Taking photographs has become as essential to me as breathing air, and in some ways, has evolved into my sixth sense. The images submitted to ‘What Lies Ahead’ metaphorically convey a sense of hope as people venture out to embrace a new reality."

Mara Zaslove is a fine art photographer who thrives on creating visual conversations that embrace the diversity of the human spirit, the universality of aging and the beauty of the natural world.
She received a BA from the University of California, Berkeley and later, a Teaching Credential at U.C.L.A. After completing her MA in Counseling and Guidance from California State, Northridge, she became a Licensed Marriage, Family and Child Therapist.

Her previous profession as a Child Therapist informs her photographic work and brings a heightened sensitivity to how she perceives the world.

CV:
Mara's photographs have been exhibited in juried group shows both nationally and internationally in such venues as The Los Angeles Center for Photography, Gallery 825 (LAAA), Photo LA, SoLa Contemporary, Griffin Museum and the SC Center for Photography. She has had multiple images posted on YourDailyPhotograph.com and has received numerous awards including Honorable Mentions and Finalist in several categories of the 11th-16th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards. 

On several occasions, she has been published in F-Stop Magazine and Shadow and Light Magazine.  Multiple images have recently been included in the book titled 'California Love - A Visual Mixtape' curated by Michael Rababy.

IMPRESSION by Maureen Haldeman
(Click on image for larger view)

Maureen J Haldeman says, "The circumstances we’ve faced during this past year have caused many of us to rearrange our priorities, change our focus, and allowed us time to contemplate things we did not have time to concentrate on before.
This refocus has had a definite effect on my life, as well as on my work.

As a visual artist, this shift has afforded me the time to slow down and appreciate familiar scenes with a keener sense of awareness and to consider them from a different perspective.

I have always found solace at the seashore. The ocean with its various moods has inspired much of my previous work; many of my most contemplative photographs are of the sea.

In this series my perspective has changed from encompassing the whole landscape to contemplating the details of the Tidelands, the land submerged at high tide and revealed when the tide recedes. This overlap between land and sea exposes a subtle beauty that is not always immediately apparent; shifting light and shadows, textures, patterns, designs and miniature landscapes are revealed, including the magical world contained just below the surface of the shallow waters in the tidepools.

Just as the retreating tide reveals the Tideland, so does the ebb and flow of our personal tideland reveal and conceal different aspects of our psyches … and just as the ebb tide hides the sand below it, when feelings are dismissed or overlooked they don’t disappear, they are merely hidden only to reappear when given the opportunity.

It is by recognizing, accepting and honoring the feelings that lie below the surface, that we can better learn to understand one another, and ourselves, in the hope of becoming a more complete person. It is my hope that experiences of the past year have opened up our minds to new sensibilities that will have far reaching, positive implications of on many levels."

Maureen Haldeman was born in Holland, raised in Montreal and now resides in Malibu, California. After settling in Los Angeles, she established MJH Photography in Malibu, specializing in portraiture and then expanding her photographic horizons to include architectural and street photography.

After art history and fine art photography studies with Robert Heineken at UCLA she began photographing nature – primarily the ocean and its surrounding landscape as well as abstractions found in the urban landscape.

Maureen has taught photography and darkroom skills at the college level, done freelance work for publications including The Los Angeles Times, and has been commissioned to do private photographic projects for the entertainment industry. Her work is frequently used in set design for film, television and commercials and her photographs are exhibited in galleries nationally and abroad.

She has been featured in many publications, online galleries and blogs, including Black & White Magazine, Artillery, Lenscratch, L'oeil de la Photographie, Silvershotz, Featureshoot, Fusion Art, and Fabrik Magazine, as well as on Duncan Miller Gallery's 'Your Daily Photograph.'
In addition to being part of private collections her photographs are also part of the City of Malibu’s public collection, The Los Angeles Public Library Archives and The Bieneke Library at Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut.

Haldeman was appointed to serve as a member of the Malibu Arts Task Force, to identify public art opportunities and to assist in implementing a public arts policy (Arts Commission) for the city; she continues to be active in Los Angeles art-related events.

Mia Kiera Sweeney says, "Amidst fast technological advancements and actions of capitalist America, I explore the positionality of my social, political, and economic status amongst other communities. My personal reflections, in the form of documentary, also evaluate the themes of alienation and insecurity."

Mia is an Art Practice student at UC Berkeley studying cinematography, photography, and other mediums. Specifically, she focuses on capturing environments or people who inevitably influence modern-day society, despite their subtle, or often overlooked, role.

OPEN BOOK by Rebecca Sexton Larson

Rebecca Sexton Larson says of her series, ' How to Catch a Man Made Cloud - Navigating the Seemingly Impossible: Creativity in Times of Adversity', "I am a child of the fifties. Born between 1946 and 1964, we are often called baby boomers or the “sandwich generation."

With about 10,000 baby boomers hitting age 65 each day, we are becoming caregivers and also becoming those needing care. Companies now offer support systems and counseling for the caregiver.

But what if the caregiver is an artist or photographer working daily in solitude, in a studio or darkroom. Can you put creativity on hold? Pause your need to create? Most of my "artist" friends, like myself, maintain a certain degree of sanity through our ability to create. What happens when the freedom to create is suddenly taken away?

In 2008 I unexpectedly became the full-time caregiver to ailing parents. Being an only child, I was their single advocate in medical, financial, and day-to-day issues. 

Devoted to the darkroom and the hands-on approach to picture-making, I became faced with the task of creating photographs digitally while balancing visits to hospital appointments. I continued to explore the visual concepts of storytelling, utilizing the landscape as a primary element of my photographic constructions.

My interest lies in developing poignant short stories that challenge the relationship between perception and imagination. Each of my images illustrates a non-existent landscape reflective of the isolation and loneliness I was experiencing.

My work depicts a personal journey to accept, adapt, and balance my caregiver role."

Rebecca Sexton Larson is a Tampa based studio artist. She graduated from the University of South Florida with degrees in both Fine Arts and Mass Communications. 

Sexton Larson has been awarded three Florida Individual Artist Fellowships (1998, 2002, and 2008). In 2006, she received an Artist Enhancement Grant from the State of Florida and, in 2005, was commissioned by the City of Tampa as its Photographer Laureate for a year. As Photo Laureate, she documented from her perspective the visual poetry of Tampa using a standard pinhole camera combined with hand-painting b/w photographs. 

In 2015 Sexton Larson received a grant from the State of Florida to attend the prestigious Creative Capital Professional Development Program that supports innovative artists across the country through funding, counsel, and career development services.

Sexton Larson's photographs are in numerous significant collections throughout the country, including: Polaroid; Progressive Corporate Art; Graham Nash (Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young); Polk Museum of Art (Lakeland); Museum of Fine Arts (St. Petersburg); the Tampa Museum of Art (Tampa); Historical Museum (Santa Fe); and Candela Gallery (Richmond). Many of her one-of-a-kind works are in private collections.  

Larson's photographs are featured in photographic periodicals including View Camera Magazine, Black and White Magazine, Silversshotz, Adore Noir Magazine, Afterimage, and others.

ECO WORLD VIEW-3 by Richard Cohen
(Click on image for larger view)

Richard Alan Cohen says of his series, "World View  (a microcosmic perspective on the future of global climate)', "The world and its climate is at a crossroads. With all the swings in the weather, the heat, and the violent storms, it’s not hard to imagine that the Earth is veering toward an unwelcome outcome!

As I pause to study this microcosm I wonder whether global warming has established a local foothold, and I am focused on the fate of this natural niche. Are these sightings of the future planet through a telescope or field of view seen with a microscope? These World Views are both; a change in perspective that enlarges upon the importance of climate change to even the smallest part of nature."

 Richard Alan Cohen grew up in Portland, Maine, and attended Bowdoin College where he co-majored in art and science.

Having always maintained an avid interest in art, he has now transitioned from a 40-year career in cardiovascular research to being a full-time fine art photographer living in northwest Connecticut.

The aspects of discovery (now of subject, light, and color in the field) as well as the imagination and creativity involved in developing a concept (now in editing and printing of each image), are very similar in the two careers, with many of the same rewards.

Richard has exhibited his photographs in numerous solo and group shows at venues including 555 Gallery, Panopticon Gallery, the Griffin Museum of Photography, Photographic Gallery San Miguel Allende, Galatea Fine Art Gallery, Kingman Gallery, Sohn Fine Art, and Five Points Gallery. He is represented by Kingman Gallery (Deer Isle, ME), Photographic Gallery San Miguel (San Miguel Allende, MX), and Boston Art.  

Based on his experience as a youth in and around boatyards, abstract seascapes in “Waterlines” and iconic orifices in “Overboard” have been derived from photographs of the textures on the sides of boat hulls sitting in their cradles. Abstract landscapes have also been visualized on the dying fronds of Mexican agave in his series, “Agave Night Visions”, “Agave Climate Change”, and “Agave in Turmoil”.

Recently, his concerns about the environment have led him to create otherworldly landscapes from mossy, rotting tree stumps in “Moonlit” and “Moonlight Burning”, and in small, hidden waterfalls and streams in “Climate Falls”, “Planet Falls”, and “Discovered Worlds”. In “Trunk Votives” he has shown his artist’s hand in abstract landscapes derived from tree trunk details printed on handmade parchment.

PATH TO VULNERBILITY by SameSource
(Click on image for larger view)

SameSource is a photographic artist with over two decades of professional experience recording images. 

SameSource fine art photography spans both landscape and bodyscape, often exploring human sexuality and its relationship with art.  

With recent showings from FotoFever, Paris, France, to Art Basel, Miami Beach, SameSource was recently featured in a major show of the series, Reinterpreted, at Fabrik Projects Gallery in Los Angeles.  

The accompanying book of the same title received an Honorable Mention at the Lucie Foundation’s International Photography Awards in the Best Fine Art Book category in 2020.  

SameSource served as Artist in Residency for 2019 by GilsfjordurArts in Westfjords, Iceland, received the international Lumiere Award for fine art nude photography, 2017, and was featured in Coagula Gallery’s Los Angeles Ten Top Artists exhibition for 2016 in a show curated by Tulsa Kinney of Artillery Magazine. 

In addition to being included in over 100 exhibitions in galleries and fairs around the world, SameSource work has been featured in The Huffington Post, Artillery Magazine, American Photo, two documentary films by EMS ARTS, and has twice been profiled by Silvershotz International Magazine of Contemporary Photography, as well as being one of 25 international artists featured in the magazine’s 2017 Folio of Fine Art Photography (ISBN: 9781642049985).  

In addition to being featured in numerous photography books, SameSource is the author of six fine art photography books, Underside (ISBN: 9781006723667), Reinterpreted (ISBN 9780464052890), Objects of Ruin (ISBN: 9781320134194), Apples (ISBN: 9781366155986), Apples Reinterpreted (ISBN: 9781366155856), and The Green Dress (ISBN: 9781388795016).

With origins in the rural Midwest, the artist studied music and philosophy in a liberal arts education before traveling to Italy and becoming immersed in the works of the Renaissance.  

A return to the US brought the pursuit of graduate work in music and cinema, with an eventual arrival on the west coast via the prestigious University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts.  

In addition to full-time work in photographic fine art, SameSource output has included notable works as a recording artist, writer, and filmmaker.

SameSource is represented by Fabrik Projects Gallery in Los Angeles and Sin City Gallery in Las Vegas.

Shannon McClatchey says, "For the last decade or so my primary focus has been exploring and capturing dynamic, temporary vacancy. Whether it’s the silenced space created by a shift in the environment or change in the weather or daylight; or the uneasy emptiness of urban landscapes waiting for oblivion through a demographic or economic change, I document the space between.

 The results of my work might be described as moody or haunted, populated by shadow and tied together by the question, "what happened here?” I see the detritus of our existence where the lingering heat of human presence has, or is, quickly dissipating. Mostly I see anticipation, potential and anxiety. My art wrestles with capturing effectively that uncertain edge between hope and fear.

I have been photographing the world since I received a Kodak Instamatic camera for my 7th birthday. In my teens, my father promised he would give me a 'real camera' if I took a photography/darkroom class, so at 14 I spent the summer at Barnsdall Art Center in Hollywood, CA.

I not only earned my Konica T3, but began a lifelong love of making images. In the past few years I have had a solo exhibition, Presence and Absence, at the Threshold Gallery at Mithun in Seattle, received a King County Public Art Projects grant from 4Culture in Seattle, and was included in the Takt Kunstprojektraum artist residency program in Berlin, Germany.

Most recently I was included in the Nocturne show at Arc Gallery in San Francisco, CA. Currently, I shoot mostly on film using 35mm, medium format, plastic and Polaroid cameras, though I occasionally dabble in digital.


All images are available for purchase. Black and white are gelatin silver prints, hand printed on archival Ilford fiber paper in editions of 10. Color (film) photos are giclee prints. (Please contact the artist for prices.)
