Taking Your Time: A Conversation on Long-term Project Sustainability with Eric William Carroll
Taking Your Time: A Conversation on Long-term Project Sustainability with Eric William Carroll
Join us via Zoom Wednesday, February 22nd, 7 pm ET
Long-term creative projects (5+ years) can be exceptionally rewarding in terms of the depth of one's research, the close relationships formed, and the types of imagery that can only be developed over years of working with the same subject. That said, long-term projects can also be the most difficult to sustain, both creatively and financially.
Join Eric William Carroll & other members of the Kinship Photography Collective including Frances Bukovsky, Dale Rio, and Anna Gage Norton for a slideshow and conversation on how to foster long-term projects that avoid burnout, exhaustion, and boredom.
Eric William Carroll’s work on photography, science, and nature explores the differences in how we experience, represent, and organize the world. Through his photographs, installations, and performances, Carroll creates visual and emotional connections that span enormous distances in space and time. At the heart of his practice is a genuine sense of curiosity that questions traditional binary relationships.
Carroll’s work has been shown widely and included in exhibitions at the New Orleans Museum of Art, Aperture Foundation, the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Pier 24 Photography, among others. Carroll has participated in residencies with the MacDowell Colony, Rayko Photo Center and the Blacklock Nature Sanctuary, and was the winner of the 2012 Baum Award for Emerging Photographers. Born and raised in the Midwest, Carroll currently lives in Asheville, North Carolina.
