Lobster World
This past August I ventured up to Maine's Penobscot Bay area with photographs of lobstering on my mind. I was interested in learning about--and capturing--the entire lobstering process with my camera, from setting and hauling traps to banding claws to bringing in the catch and seeing the lobsters passed from dealer to distributer. I wanted to understand the story behind the tank of lobsters in my supermarket's seafood section. I wanted my photographs to begin to tell this story and showcase the place and people who are at the center of it. What evolved was a photo essay of sorts--one that I plan to add to in the near future.
The following eight images are prints that I had the opportunity to exhibit at University of the Arts in Philly this past December. In order of appearance:
1. Shorty, 8 1/2"x 11" archival inkjet print (above)
2. Dad's Lobster Wagon, 9" x 13" archival inkjet print
3. Wendijean Catches a Big One, 9" x 13" archival inkjet print
4. Stonington Harbor, 9" x 13" archival inkjet print
5. Bringing in the Catch, 9" x 13" archival inkjet print
6. The Lobster Dealer's Daughter, 9" x 13" archival inkjet print
7. Bander, 8 1/2"x 11" archival inkjet print
8. Shedder, 8 1/2"x 11" archival inkjet print
