Short Bio
Photographer, writer, poet, abstract artist. The bold geometric images represent a unity of Ms. Taft’s technical and artistic background.. The influence of Georgia O’Keefe threads through the natural imagery and invokes an erotic tension that creates an organic quality in the tightly structured mystical forms. The manifestation of powerful totems reminds us of our universal connection to nature and spirituality. Analogous to the Celtic and the traditional Norwegian motifs, the symmetry and repeating patterns of the elemental images are inspired by Ms Taft’s Irish / Norwegian ancestry. Similar to the psychodiagnostic tests published by Hans Huber, 1948 (Rorschach Ink Blots), viewing these images is distinctively personal for each individual, eliciting a variety of impressions and metaphors that spring from diverse backgrounds and experiences. This innovative blend of art and technology represents a radical break from tradition and embodies a uniquely original emergence in the sphere of abstract photography.
