ARTIST STATEMENT

"As a photographer, I bear witness to the traditions, rituals, and rights of passage of my friends, family, and clients. As an anthropologist, I leave behind an archive of images from my life's work; and in turn, reveal a tableaux of how a population in our culture celebrates marriage and family. As a woman, I understand and reveal the perfectly flawed form of the female body and capture a partner's unfettered love for it. As a craftsman, I escape to worlds filled with papers, books, leathers, cloths and wonderful characters to unearth raw materials for the objects I produce. As a mother, I know children will behave, smile, and please us only when they choose. As a person I have discovered my love for humanity and the ways in which we celebrate life."  MISSY MCLAMB
