Mobile Photography Intimate Interview with Mary Lorincz from Walnut Creek, California, United States

04/12/2019 by Joanne Carter

Our eighty ninth interview in this series of intimate interviews is with talented photographer and artist Mary Lorincz from Walnut Creek, California, United States. You may know Lorincz from her popular Instagram account @ms.divination. For Lorincz taking the photograph is only half the work. I imagine that she spends the same, if not more time on her post processing. Within her portraiture she loves deep and extensive areas of sepia and or black and in some cases the background is minimised or eliminated entirely to give greater emphasis to the sitter’s face. Some of the faces are also masked though as if concealment offers a new perspective to humanity, perhaps humanity is what we see. Enjoy!

Mobile Photography Intimate Interview with Jana Curcio from Washington D.C. United States

02/12/201925/11/2019 by Joanne Carter

Our eighty eighth interview in this series of intimate interviews is with talented photographer and artist Jana Curcio from Washington D.C. United States. This interview is refreshing and thought-provoking, a stirring exploration on friendship, feminism, self love and religion. Curcio I have now discovered is a woman who leaps from the page and into our hearts, she captured mine, almost immediately. There’s a depth to this interview and to the artwork, burning fiercely with love and hurt. She brings into focus, all that really matters and even her thoughts on the afterlife are poetic, “Absolutely! I’m so excited….. I can’t wait to get to heaven! I’m ready to go today in fact if my time came”, what joy, Enjoy!

Our eighty sixth interview in this series of intimate interviews is with talented photographer and artist Kaoru Shintaku from Singapore. You may know her from her popular Instagram account entitled @patragraphy. Shintaku is Japanese born and grew up in Tokyo but currently she lives in Singapore. This interview is inspiring for many reasons, her imagery which includes florals, cityscapes and landscapes are as precise as her language, as she utilises the use of colour and tone in tandem. Shintaku maintains her sang-froid throughout whilst simultaneously charming us as she hews closely to her thoughts and feelings. Enjoy!

“I am very grateful to Joanne Carter for entrusting me with this column, and creating our first showcase.

All of you who have contributed here have been so generous with your images, and quite indulgent with my penchant for story telling. Images that move me awaken stories within, much as dreams do. I offer only one interpretation for each image, and hope it resonates. But the creator of the image always has the final say, of course! We make images for many reasons—to be seen, to be recognized, to express our deepest longings, for fun, to teach. It is such an honour to be a witness to every pice of art. This column, dedicated to adding our own individual lines and marks to our photographs, does not draw the line when it comes to your creativity and artistry. I am, daily, in awe of your artistic offerings”, Carol Wiebe.
