Sally Mann




Sally Mann's landscapes. Strong connection to place/ huge inspiration in my life right now.

Watched a documentary before finishing this project about Sally Mann. She says "It never occurred to me to leave home to make art." and "The things that are close to you are the things you can photograph the best." I knew I needed to make art about home and my sense of home is very shaken lately. By transferring parts of places to other places, I was able to answer questions about home. Tying leaves to trees was the first time I felt like connecting something in art really made sense.
