THE COLORIST CHESS : REMOTE PHOTOGRAPHY BY EILEEN MOLONY

 



Photographer, Eileen Molony (Photo above by Molony), took her camera "for a walk" in Chicago on Saturday, October, 14. Participants (those arriving at the gallery, or phoning/emailing in on the day of the event) could communicate with the artist by phone and offer very simply instructions on where to go and what to shoot.
By calling the photographer with instructions such as:
"take a photo facing west from kneeling position"
"Take a photo of the nearest animal to you"
"take a picture of your foot"
"...of something wet." ......whatever you can think of, a reflection of the relationship between the artist was revealed through the final images.
