"These photographs burn in the retina and then in the body and
mind. They unfold with uncanny and luminous elegance."--from the
Introduction by Arthur Sze
In a bold departure from her traditional portraiture, acclaimed
photographer Mariana Cook turns her eye to the lovely, overlooked
world found close at hand. Beginning January 1, 1999, one year
before the new millennium, Cook set herself the task of taking one
very serious photograph every day, forcing her to look anew at
everything surrounding her. The resulting work is a passionate
celebration of looking closely. This is not a diary or
self-interested exhibition, rather it is a celebration of form and
transformation, a warm and thankful awareness of the world around
us. It is impossible to resist these tender images--a child's feet
in the sand, bands of light on the living room floor, a single
glistening oyster--or to remain unaffected by the subtle poignancy
of the familiar made mysterious. 96 duotone photographs.
