Mrs. Deane posted the lovely work of Beth Dow which looks so luscious and otherworldly, I can hardly stand it. (It also makes me think of the topiary maze from The Shining. I’m so pedestrian I know.)
I’d love to see these prints in person… I’m sure that much is lost in the translation to .jpg. The two images above are from her In the Garden series. The ones below are from her Fieldwork series which she recently exhibited at Franklin Artworks in Minneapolis.
Beth was a McKnight Fellow in 2004, putting her in the very fine company of many photographers I know and love.

I met the lovely Ms. Dow in Santa Fe a couple of years ago, and you are right - in person her prints are luscious and something to behold. If I remember correctly she has married very well: to her master printer. Smart and talented!

I agree, the first photo is totally fascinating, I’m not quite sure why

[…] ago, I was introduced to the work of Beth Dow via Mrs. Deane. About a week after I said here that I’d love to see the prints in person, a slim sturdy masonite sandwich arrived via FedEx. As expected, the photos inside were stunning […]
