Woody Guthrie's new year's resolutions, 1942/43

on grief, for edible hudson valley mag

Here are a few photos that recently I shot for Edible Hudson Valley Magazine.  This is not the first time I have illustrated, rather than documented,  a story for them.  It's a fun challenge.  I read the story and make pictures that I feel help to tell it.  Here is a link to a similar story that I shot for them a couple of years ago.  Coincidently it was also about death. Go figure.

 

kim markel and her dancing chair

Meet designer/fabricator Kim Markel and her ghostly furniture.  Kim takes traditional, Louis XVI style furniture (mostly found) and casts the wood in a mold so that she can then remake each piece in resin.  The result feels at once old and new.  Light, because it is a translucent material but still heavy with it's luxurious scalloped detailing.  See dancing chair video below.
