Visions of the Carnal & Ethereal with Tara Sellios

Tara Sellios’ visceral, highly detailed photographs are intensely planned and process oriented. Using an 8×10 view camera, she photographs these arrangements which result in dramatic, painterly still-life photographs wrought with sensuality, lightness and darkness, and religious symbolism. In this free online presentation, Tara discusses the journey of making this imagery, including inspirations, research, and the preparatory work it takes to prepare for and build the sculptural scene.
Tara Sellios is a multidisciplinary artist working mainly in large format photography and also in drawing, sculpture and installation. She graduated from The Art Institute of Boston in 2010 with a BFA in photography and art history. Recent solo exhibitions include Infernalis at Gallery Kayafas (Boston, MA), Sinuous at C.
