Photographer of the Day: Carrie Solomon

Photographer Carrie Solomon knows how to deconstruct the objects she photographs. Whether it be food, musical instruments , or raw natural materials (think bark, leaves, etc.) Carrie knows how to take the object apart and analyze it from different angles. Look at the guitar above, because she has a series of three photographs, all with different angles of the guitar compared to how it normally looks, she therefore takes it apart to analyze our own interpretation, to re-interpret that object that we see everyday.
