Abigail Taubman

Originally from New York, New York, I am working towards a bachechlors of arts in Environmental Analysis and Studio Art from Pitzer College in Claremont, California.

 

My work engages with the nature of photography, and the essential modes that allow the medium to function: production, reproduction, circulation and consumption. Process focused work rematerializes the photograph through film and darkroom based series of place-based portraits, landscapes and landscapes as displaced portraits that poetically engage with the social and the historical through extensive research and (re)presenting of the archive. My photographs poetically consider the subtleties of the human, topographic and unseen, establishing a sense of place both past, present and future.
