Its a collaborative improvisational process between Photographer and Performer, interpreting a real story of a mental breakdown.We both came to the session with our own ideas of what we would do, then we just created, improvising on the spot. The process was exhilarating, Tara moved and I photographed. The resulting imagery tell a story. For this particular showing We will feature 9 large prints, as well as groupings of mini stories that were created within the main story.About us:Tara is a choreographer, performer, educator and Artistic Director of Tara Cheyenne Performance.
