Personally I did not get too inspired by her work as a whole. I did not understand the concept of the book with the numerous pictures of the same woman. I thought her photography was beautiful but where she was coming from with her work was difficult to understand. However, I did enjoy looking at her various photographs of water even though I feel like that's something anybody who has a camera can do. The one thing that reached out to me was the setup of her exhibition. It was not placed on a wall, but rather on wedged between glass frames and placed in different angles where viewers can have different perspectives of her work. I thought that was very unique. The setup gave me the impression that she wanted the viewers to flow through her work similar to how water would instead of just having them lined up against a wall. Another thing that I liked about her was that she felt that text was visual. And all in all, I enjoyed her work because its simplicity and how she sort of gravitates to the shade of white in her work.
