Amy Stein and Stacy Arezou Mehrfar | Tall Poppy Syndrome


"In 2010, American photographers Amy Stein and Stacy Arezou Mehrfar embarked on a month-long road trip throughout New South Wales—Australia’s most populous state. They were interested in investigating “Tall Poppy Syndrome.” Is the syndrome even real? Can it be documented or observed? Stein and Mehrfar set out to explore quintessential Australian life and find what evidence they could of the existence of this phenomenon."– From the photo editors at Time Magazine

Casey Ruble Disarmed


"These intimate collages of interior and exterior worlds introduce to us a scene where the description of the main event is absent, but filled in by the supporting details or evidence, suggesting a deeper, often unsettling narrative."

Vojtech V. Sláma (b. 1974) lives and works in the Czech Republic. His photographs have been exhibited in numerous venues across the United States, Europe and Asia. In Wolf’s Honey, Vojtech V. Sláma offers a wonderful glimpse of his world—days spent with friends, observations of his artist peers, visits to places and events, glances of strangers, still life and figurative studies—all personal vignettes inherently connected to the tradition of Czech photography. Together they reveal Sláma’s fascination with the beauty of ordinary life and moments that he snatches without fanfare and yet with such poetic force. Stunningly rendered by the artist into Silver Bromide prints, the photographs are quiet, melancholic and at times—timeless.–Klompching Gallery
