Cig Harvey, The Birdhouse, Rockport, Maine, 2011, Courtesy of Robert Klein GalleryFor the past 12 years Cig Harvey has allowed her personal life to inspire her photographic work. Through self portraiture and images of family and friends she meditates on moments of celebration, lingers in moments of uncertainty, and explores relationships between people. The every day experience, the pattern of life is unique but it is shared. We have all experienced moments of elation and frustration, of love and loss, hope and disappointment. The essence of human experience is woven into the frames of Harvey's work. With beautiful light, rich color, and sensual curiosity, pose, or framing the works invite.
The new text as Harvey puts it is "A book of photographs and text about a life being lived, it's a map about one women's life but made up of the stuff that is all of our lives. An archetypal quest, a love story, a book of secrets."
Harvey will be present for the opening reception and will make brief comments on her work and be available to sign advanced copies of her book.
