Artists Research

 I've been looking at abstract movement photography and came across an artists called Kristin Smith. Kristin Smith is an interdisciplinary artist. Smith investigates the complex constellation of relationships between mind, body, experience and consciousness.










Kristin comes from a diverse artistic background with training in classical and physical theatre, visual art, and movement. Smith has worked in Masion, Wisconsin, Calgary, Alberta, Canada and San Francisco, California. Kristin Smith earned her MFA in Mixed Media from the university of calgary, and earned her BA in bother Theatre Arts and Art  from the university of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

 

 I really like the look of the abstract movement in these photographs. It creates a different feel to the photographs. Instead of freezing the movement of the dancer we can now use a long shutter speed to create an image from the bodies itself. I like the technique of capturing the bodies move. I really want to look into experimenting this.
