ROBIN SCHWARTZ Step into Amelia’s world… Last year, my best friend and I were up late one night having a conversation about this amazing photographer’s work she had seen at the 2010 Hyères Festival. It took her about an hour to remember the photographer’s name. But once she finally found her work online, I was completely mesmerized. My best friend has always had the greatest taste and I don’t think she realized the impact these images had on me… I won’t say more, just see for yourself here. “My photographs are drawn from real journeys undertaken with my daughter, Amelia. I am driven to depict relationships with animals but the photographs are not documents; they are evidence of the invented worlds that we explore and the fables we enact together. Photography gives us the opportunity to access our dreams, to discover the extraordinary. An artist photographing her child can invite ridicule, but getting personal with my projects has always been both my need and my edge. The Amelia’s World project has evolved with my daughter’s maturing personality and aptitude. Amelia is my priority, my muse, my co-conspirator, my tormentor and my bliss. Collaborating with Amelia, I am able to go to any place in time.” -- source link
