Rachel Cox: The States Project: Michigan
Author: Grant Gill
Kicking off February, Lenscratch will be featuring the work of Michigan-based photographers as part of our ongoing series, The States Project. Before Rachel Cox takes over this weeks as our guest editor for the state, it is a pleasure to share with you her body of work Feel Some Type of Way. Not held to a specific way of image making, and insistent about pushing her comforts as an artist, Rachel Cox continues to make thoughtful and visually interesting work. This time around, in a departure from her previous series where she photographed her grandmother in her last 10 years of life, Rachel has synthesized primal responses to personified objects. How she has photographed these hot tubs gives me chills, and I am bothered by how much I want to feel their silky finishes, or trace their shiny, plastic forms.
