description
"This work is an honest representation of the duality or multiplicity of the self in regard to decisions about intimate relationships, family, belief systems, and lifestyle options. I am interested in not only what the subject matter says about myself, but also what the viewer's response to these images says about their own identities and social constructs."—Kelli Connell On the surface, Kelli Connell's series Double Life appears to be documenting the relationship between two women. Closer examination reveals that Connell uses a single individual to represent both sides of an evolving relationship, digitally combining multiple negatives of the same model. Through this work, Connell explores identity, gender, sexuality, and the duality of "self." Aperture is pleased to offer Floating, the subtle and restrained style of which perfectly demonstrates Connell’s style. Connell is an artist engaged in big ideas and this photograph will be a vital addition to your collection. KELLI CONNELL was born in Oklahoma City in 1974. She received a BFA in photography from the University of North Texas (1997) and an MFA in photography from Texas Woman’s University (2003), both in Denton. Her work is in the collections of Microsoft; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; San Marcos Fine Arts Center, San Marcos, Texas; Columbus Museum of Art, Columbus, Ohio; and Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. She has resided in Ohio since 2003. |
