“I make pictures of things that make me gasp. I want to evoke that same feeling. I want the viewer to halt too. Plunging your hands into soil is the same as plunging your hands deep into the body to grab at the heart”
~ Cig Harvey
I gasped at the sheer beauty of this image when I first saw it. The last time I felt something similar was when I first saw the room of great Pre Raphaelites Paintings at Tate Britain so many years ago.
Congratulations to Cig on her presentation within the "Human / Nature" Exhibition at Fotografiska, in New York. If you have the chance, don't miss a visit to the exhibition to see Cig's beautiful works in person!
