Love this work - first saw her at Grinnell College’s Faulconer Gallery.…
My thoughts about that at the time…
Glad I picked up a copy of “Left Behind” at the time too….

This example in photography is the sort of “dialogue” that you sometimes recognize in the arts - interesting to consider.
Reminds me of a quote which I submit is spot on: “There is no progress in art, any more than there is progress in making love. There are simply different ways of doing it.” - Man Ray.

Swimming Hole. Near Weverton, NY
Later bulletin from Albert Grubel: two hundred and eighty people were killed in car accidents on Memorial Day, well over the newspaper prediction, and forty-one had been ‘drownded’ —three hundred and twenty-eight in all. A party had gone out to pick flowers, and one of the girls had strayed away, and they hadn’t found her yet, and bloodhounds had been sent after her. A little boy had also strayed, and bloodhounds had been sent after him, too.
—Edmund Wilson, Upstate: Records and Reflections of Northern New York
