    there is really something special here. there’ve been seeing a lot of altered photos around lately, but mostly found/vintage/ephemera/vernacular type things. something about these being contemporary shots, and then her use of color and line–especially going outside the bodies–is just really unique and cool.

    cat’s cradle – totally. it’s all that thread, esp. between a pair of hands. : )

    bridget – well-said! it is a style that is quite common but yes, the details make it feel quite unique.
