Davida Nemeroff, Box Stall, 2013.
In one series, she considers issues of spectatorship at the Los Angeles Zoo. Box Stall (2013) shows the back end of a horse, highlighting what is included and excluded from the frame of vision.
Davida Nemeroff turns her camera toward scenes from everyday life, creating compositions within the frame of her lens that are strong, even introspective. She locates herself as a spectator, and is invested in a way of seeing that is simultaneously meditative, pedestrian, and intensely physical. A subtle yet anxious beauty comes across in her work. Focused in many ways on formal concerns of the photographic medium, Nemeroff takes on questions of sight and looking.
