Piece description from the artist
Even in the most aggressive currents, these Shy Feather Duster Worms gently sway with elegance. Known for being incredibly shy around divers, it takes a great deal of planning and patience to get a photograph of them. This one was especially beautiful and I had to do a couple of passes to be sure of its location and then wait several minutes for it to remerge after it had been startled by my bubbles.
Printed on a gorgeous Baryta paper made by Hahnemühle.
Deb grew up with cameras, films, and other photography accouterments being as normal to her as baseballs or dolls were to other kids. She learned to take what was there, what was real — the light, the dark, the mood, the balance, the air — and translate it through the lens. Having a deep affinity for water, she merged these two passions and began creating underwater work. In the water, everything that we know goes away — noise, gravity, perceptions — there is tremendous peace and it allows Deb to create visual enigmas that calm rather than confuse.
Even with this devout love of photography, Deb had always worked in other media, forging more than just images, rather pieces that seem to morph. That which we actually see is an interpretation — the viewer’s — and that changes with each person, lighting, environment, and more.
