Piece description from the artist
New York City has several parks and gardens, and the Botanical Garden in The Bronx is a wonderful oasis from the urban buzz. Just walking the grounds for a short period of time will make you feel hundreds of miles from the constant hum of the city. Open all year, it's largely deserted on the colder days and it's when I find it to be the most beautiful, affording me the opportunity to create thoughtful image compositions.
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.
