Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key and unique experimental category of work in Ellen Carey's career: her early cameraless photograms of the 1990s, which she created in total darkness using photosensitive paper that she crumpled, creased, obscured or filtered and exposed to light, creating color, shadow and depth effects that recorded her actions. This well-known work, which explores abstraction and conceptual issues at the basis of photography, includes a wide range of individual series, whose titles reflect the objects or materials she used to interrupt or strike the paper (e.g., "Push Pins," "Penlights") or reference visual phenomena, such as afterimages ("Blinks"). The re-photographed, multiple exposure work Color Theory bridges her early self-portraits to her mature abstract work and demonstrates her use of photographic color theory and interests in geometry, mathematics and the science of seeing. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key developmental and experimental work and its impact on her practice and contemporary art. Carey’s work of this type gained her new recognition and is discussed extensively in the article and by prominent critics and publications cited in the article. |
