Projects!

Thanks to everyone who responded to the photo-collaboration post I made a while ago. I haven’t had time to get back to everyone, but, as I am turning this into a group project I will be in touch soon. I’m just in the process of finding the time to draw up a proposal and when I do, everyone will receive an email about it.

I’m not taking on any more collaborators for the time being for either the group project or the illustration work, but I’ll probably start up another project soon.

Collaborations

I’m currently looking for creative collaborators!

I’m looking for two kinds of artists for two very separate projects;

The first project I’m looking for 2D artists, preferably illustrators (but painters and designers are welcome), to collaborate on a photo-illustration project. This will entail the collaborator using images I take and either mutilating or enhancing half of the image. It might be interesting.

The second is for a fellow photographer to work with me on a project about suggestion. Basically this would entail the other photographer and myself playing a game of “first thing that pops into your head”. As one of us would photograph something and the other would respond with a photo of something that they relate to the first. (Eg; one person photographs their bedroom, the other person photographs a bed, the other photographs someone sleeping, etc, etc).

If you are interested in collaborating email me: sarahvictoriakane@gmail.com

Photography - Ewen Spencer

Ewen Spencer, whom Martin Parr recognised as one of the most promising young photographers in the UK, works delicately in the realms of British sub-culture. His work reminds me a lot of Parr, with a sense of irony looking at “Britishness”. However, what strikes me about Spencer’s work in juxtaposition with Parr’s is his youthfulness. Gone are the seaside resorts filled with the working class mass of sun-burnt elderly people, Spencer’s photographs document teenagers binge-drinking and dirty underground clubs. Definitely intriguing and undeniably exciting work.

 From his series “Teenagers”:

Photography - Matt Stuart

I’ve made some really great photography finds this week in the midst of doing some late night researching. One that has really caught my eye is the work of London photographer, Matt Stuart. His work is hilariously witty, sharp, funny and almost too-good-to-be-true. Shot in the form on old school photojournalism, but with a nice 21st century freshness.

Go have a look at his website!

Limited Edition Print Sale!

In anticipation of my forthcoming degree show in London in June, I am selling 25 limited edition prints of one of the 5 images I will be exhibiting.

The prints cost £45 ($90USD)  ex.p&p which is a fraction of the price it will be when exhibited, so it could be considered an investment of sorts.

Prints are matt and  sized 59.2cm x 42cm (23.4” x 16.5”) (A2).

Mounting is optional at an additional (small) fee.

If you are interested, please email me: sarahvictoriakane@gmail.com
Thanks.

It's quiet now, but that will change.

New York, NY. Summer 2007.

I shouldn’t have started a blog when my life is so consumed with working; University and otherwise. Perhaps, even though things are quiet, I will find time over the course of the next few months to take photos and explore all the things that inspire me. Failing that, on July 25th I’m leaving European soil and heading across the Atlantic to the United States where I always, always, find inspiration.

New Blog, First Post.

As the title suggests (and the lack of previous posts), this is my new blog, somewhere to write and somewhere to post photographs. Nothing too serious, but I will continue to actually update it on a near-daily basis with ramblings and visual spam!

Please add the RSS feed. Thank you!
