In her earliest classes with American Photographer William Gedney, Karen Ghostlaw explored the nude figure, apprehending the human body and stepping into an intimate world. In drawing figures with a camera, she explored human forms defined by light and shadow. A group of women in a collective moment of innocence, dancing with freedom of expression and joy. This photograph speaks to the deep-rooted primal desires of humanity to make honest and authentic connections through movement. The collective becomes a united entity of pure expression. A singular male figure explores the contrasting elements of geometry against the softness of flesh, composing the curvilinear human form in studio light. These investigations allowed young eyes to explore freely, make sketches, and develop their senses, honing their abilities to use the camera to define the subject in many ways through the lens.
