Lily Mayfield

The Subject Before You

Saturday, October 03 - 3:00PM to 3:30PM
Medallion C & D

This lecture will present Brood, the recent work by Lily Mayfield. As a new mother, Mayfield’s photographs not only document the beginning stages of family life but also describe the extreme intimacy of the parent/child relationship in both an emotional and physical way. The proximity of the camera to her subject visualizes these connections, as well as the hovering nature of newly christened motherhood. These photographs reflect the precarious balancing act of mothering and life; Mayfield has learned to find art in the everyday.
