"DYNAMIC SYMMETRY IN PHOTOGRAPHY " | KATHRYN KOLB
|
|
Kathryn Kolb was born in Indiana and grew up in the rural countryside near Charlottesville, Virginia. She earned her BA in History from Emory University, concentrating on ancient Europe and the near East. After taking photography classes at The Southeastern Center for the Arts, Kolb began work as a free-lance photographer and has been based in Atlanta since 1985. Beginning in journalism and editorial work, by the mid-1990's she shifted her focus to fine art images of natural forms and landscapes, and began building her current body of work which she continues today. Kolb's editorial work is characterized by an artistic style with strong graphic elements. Her photographs have been widely published, and have appeared in Veranda, |
Smithsonian, Rolling Stone, Nature Conservancy, Orion magazine and many others. In addition, Kolb has accomplished numerous special photographic projects, has been featured in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, the Fernbank Museum of Natural History, TBS' award-winning television series, Storyline, and was one of five photographers selected to display work on Atlanta's MARTA buses for the public art project "Art in Motion." Kolb's
book, Kathryn Kolb Photographs, was released in November 2008.
Kolb's fine art series include black & white and color photographs of landscapes, trees and plants from diverse natural environments, often from the Southeastern US. Her most recent color work explores abstract constructions that seem more akin to painting than photography. As photographer, Kolb stays true to the simplest form of her medium - all works are straightforward, un-manipulated images. Kolb's fine art photographs can be found in numerous private and institutional collections. *See the links below for Kolb's extensive resume.

| "I am always aiming for the point at which design and meaning intersect seamlessly. Finding the visual rhythms in natural forms is a way of gaining a glimpse of the greater design we can barely perceive - that we don't have words for - that connects us all.
|
I feel that my strength as a photographer is not so much in creating something new, but in noticing how things are." -- Kathyrn Kolb
