“Arnica” by Photographer Rosemary Haynes

A sequence about moms by Massachusetts-born, New York-based photographer Rosemary Haynes. Drawn to the way in which pictures entangle the private archive and the “current second,” Haynes creates photographs that discover concepts of lore and reminiscence. On this specific mission, Haynes takes on the theme of household, coming-of-age, and lacking our moms. As she states, it’s a mission about how social reproductive labor is nothing with out start, and the way start results in loss of life, typically extra shortly than different occasions:

“This sequence will be described as a ballad which my late stepmother, Heather, didn’t have the possibility to complete. A storybook for my brother, of the mom he longs to know. A household album for us all, the place our current can discover abundance with the previous. Arnica explores notions of maternal labor and care, the imperfections in exhibiting up, and a household motto, by no means don’t swim. Submerged within the safety and uncertainty of water, very like a womb.”
