Kathryn Cook


Some beautiful photography by an American photographer who lives in Turkey, Kathryn Cook. The photographs are an attempt to convey ideas and images of the Armenian deportations and killings that took place in Turkey during the early part of the 20th century. The photographs have a really interesting transient quality; nothing looks fixed or permanent, a quality that is very unphotographic in some ways, given that we are meant to see clarity within the thousand of a second on display. You can see more of her work as well as this series which is called 'Memories of Trees,Turkey and the Armenian genocide' at http://www.agencevu.com/stories/index.php?id=81&p=205

MINDAUGAS AZUSILIS



Some interesting work by Lithuanian photographer Mindaugus Azusilis. It's from a series of photographs of mould. As ever when you see images like this there is an inevitable chorus of 'WHAT! MOULD' . However you should spend time looking at the images and the beauty of them even the simplicity is a thing of beauty. I can imagine the excitement of seeing this and realising what a great image it would make. You can find more of his work at. http://mindaugasazusilis.com/index.htm
