Allison Hunter Allison Hunter creates visual metaphors for the absraction of relationships between wilderness and domesticity, form and sense, and time and space. In Hunter's digitally manipulated photographs, zoo animals are shown divested of their everyday settings and recontextualized in surreal surroundings. Removed frm their enclosures yet still 'caught,' framed in abstract washes of light and color, Hunter's eerily prescient animals are far from pastoral. With background details missing, the photographer's gaze feels heightened and hyperreal--and Hunter's zoological subject reciprocate that gaze from lushly captured moments slowed down, halted, frozen in time. click image for more information and larger image |
