This is a photograph made by Roy DeCarava, found in The Sweet Flypaper of Life. It's a photobook about black life during the Harlem Renaissance. This photograph focuses on the positive aspects of life. It shows this woman's absolute involvement with the music, her passion for it.
When I made this, I immediately was reminded of DeCarava's images that are so full of love and joy and passion. Ben is an actor and Alison is a singer and I feel like I captured them, truly, in their essence. When they feel this way, their troubles are minimized. Only the music matters.
